Group Management

The Administrator can create new user groups in the Ameyo system. The group management in Ameyo provides the feature to the Administrator to group the agents so that the "Group Manager" is able to manage and supervise them.

By default, the screen does not have any groups and shows the above screen at the time of the first login.

Create New Group

Before creating any group manager, the administrator has to create a user with the user role "Group Manager".

Click "Create New Group" button present on the page. The following page is displayed.

  3. Select the agent from the "Available Users" column which you want to assign to that group and click arrow icon.

  4. Assign at least one group manager user from the list. However, you can assign more than one group manager from here.

    Click arrow icon to unassign the users from the assigned list of the users.

    The user assignment is atomic in nature, that is not transactional. If some users out of all selected users could not be assigned because of any reason such as configuration, then allowed users will be assigned except those are failed to be assigned.
    In the case of license restriction, the users of which license is not obtained will not be displayed in the section of available users.

Edit the Group

Perform the following steps to edit the group.

  1. Select the group which you want to edit and click edit icon. The following page is opened.

Assign Group Manager or Agents in Multiple Groups

A Group Manager or agent can be assigned to multiple groups. The Administrator can create multiple groups and assign a group manager in those groups. It means a Group Manager can monitor multiple groups having different or the same agents.

We recommend to not assign the same agents in multiple groups as it makes very difficult for the Group Manager to manage the groups and agents in such a case. However, if a few agents of one group have to be assigned to another group under the same Group Manager, then make sure that both the groups should have a few different agents. As it will help the Group Manager to distinguish between both groups.

Suppose a scenario where the Administrator is changing the group (say from "G2" to "G19") of a particular user (say agent1). After changing the group, the user (say agent1) has to logout and re-login to make the change effective and display it in the Administrator Console. However, the group was being displayed as changed to the Administrator (from "G2" to "G19") without the user's re-login.
Now, this issue has been fixed. The group of a user will be displayed as changed to the Administrator only when the user has logged out and re-login.
