Adding employee groups

After adding employees, you add employee groups and associate employees to these groups. Employee groups enable you to report on specific groups of employees.

If you intend to use security roles to restrict employees from elements of Ignite, it is recommended that you create employee groups whose membership duplicates that of your agent groups. For more information on Multimedia Contact Center and security roles, see "Multimedia Contact Center security settings".
