AI-generated summary
Genesys Cloud's forecasting system utilizes AI and machine learning-driven Automatic Best Method technology to generate year-long forecasts at 15-minute intervals and weekly forecasts for the first and second years, tracking offered interactions volume and Average Handle Time metrics including talk time, hold time, and after-call work time. The platform offers three viewing options—Historical view for comparing past forecasts with actuals, Trend view for analyzing combined historical and current data, and Forecast view for future predictions—all displayed in read-only format on the Main Forecast page and unsuitable for direct scheduling purposes. Access to forecasting capabilities requires specific licensing (CX 3, CX 4, CX 3 Digital, CX 1 WEM Add-on II, CX 2 WEM Add-on I, or EX) along with appropriate permissions for Workforce Management, Analytics, and Routing functions. Proper system configuration requires business units to be set up to prevent shared load, with manual adjustments necessary when load sharing occurs. The Main Forecast page includes a customizable time zone display that can be adjusted from the default Business Unit setting. Genesys Cloud incorporates a user feedback mechanism enabling customers to evaluate documentation quality by reporting issues such as inaccurate or outdated content, confirming when information successfully addressed questions, or noting clear organization. Users can specify their role during feedback submission (Agent, Administrator, Developer/Engineer, Partner, Supervisor, or Support) and provide optional email contact information while acknowledging the Genesys Cloud privacy policy. The feedback system also provides suggested related articles covering workforce management topics including forecast page navigation, historical data import procedures, permissions configuration, and interface exploration features.
