Team Performance
This Team Performance gadget allows the supervisor to view the details of the team that is selected by default in the Team Name drop-down.
A list of agents for the selected team, their current state, time in the state, and extension appears. The supervisor can click the headers of the columns to sort by Agent Name, State, Time in State, or Extension. Supervisors can also search the agent via the search box.

2. | To sign the agent out, click Sign Out. If the supervisor wants to forcefully change the agent into a Ready state, click Ready. Example: The Sign Out and Ready buttons are active only if the action is allowed. For example, if a supervisor selects an agent who is in the Ready state, only the Sign Out button is active and in the case of selecting an agent who is in the Not Ready state, both buttons are active. If the supervisor signs out an agent who is on a call (in the Talking state), that agent will be signed out automatically when the call ends. |

If he/she selects an agent who is in the Not Ready state, he/she will see only the Ready and Sign Out options active, the Not Ready option will be greyed out. Upon signing out an agent who is reserved for a call (in Reserved or Reserved (Outbound) state), on an active call (in Talking state), or has a call on hold (in Hold state), that agent is immediately logged out of the desktop but the call is retained. |

Queue Statistics
Additional Notes on how the Queue Statistics gadget collects and displays statistics
Finesse does not compute the queue statistics but instead receives the queue statistics from Unified CCE.
Finesse does not display the queue statistics for the default queue (default skill group on Unified CCE).
The Active Out statistic includes agents talking on outbound calls placed by those agents. It also includes non-routed calls placed to external devices that are not monitored by Unified CM and to devices in a different Unified CM cluster. It does not include agents on Outbound Option calls.
If an agent places a direct call to another agent's extension, Unified CCE increments the Active Out statistic for the default queue (skill group). However, because Finesse does not display the queue statistics for the default queue, the Active Out statistics do not change for any of the Finesse queues to which the agent is assigned.
