📎User Concurrency

What is concurrency?

Concurrency defines the maximum number of open conversations/tickets that an agent can handle at a time.

Concurrency is the feature that allows setting a limit to the maximum number of conversations that an agent can handle at a particular time.


How does concurrency work?

Suppose if the concurrency is set to 5, and an agent already has 5 open conversations assigned to himself, the 6th conversation will not be assigned automatically. The 6th conversation will either be assigned to a different agent who is handling less than 5 conversations or that will be seen under the Unassigned section.

As soon the agent changes the status of any one of the 5 conversations from Open to Resolved or Waiting or Followup, then the next conversation is automatically assigned to that particular agent.


How to enable and set the concurrency number?

1

Login to the LimeChat dashboard.

2

Go to Settings.

3

Go to the Agents section

4

Click on Edit for the relevant agent

5

Navigate to the second page of this pop-up, where you will find the toggle for enabling the concurrency. Once you enable concurrency by clicking on the toggle, you will be able to see a text box titled Number of tickets limit for the agent where you can set the concurrency for that collaborator.

Finally click on "Update" to save changes.
