Using the wizard

To use the Delete Multiple Wizard:
  1. In the Agent-Extended, Intra-Day, or Weekly view's Actions toolbar or Actions menu, select Delete Multiple.
    If you have unsaved changes, WFM Web prompts you to save them before proceeding.
  2. Select activities from the Delete Multiple Wizard's screen Select Activities.
  3. Select agents from the Delete Multiple Wizard's screen Select Agents.
    Tip
    Agents without skills are not displayed in the Select Agents screen.
  4. Select the agents whose schedules you are editing.
    Important
    If you are deleting items from the Master Schedule and you have the Approve Changes security permission, you can select the Auto-Commit deleted items check box to have your items immediately deleted from the Master Schedule. If you do not have the necessary security permission, this check box is cleared and disabled. In that case, any deletions that you make are pending, and they must be reviewed and approved before they can take effect in the Master Schedule. If you are deleting items from a schedule scenario, you have the option to select the Auto-Commit deleted items check box. If selected, then your deletions are committed to your schedule scenario. If not selected, then your deletions go into a Pending state. They can be committed or rolled back by you using the Commit/Rollback Multiple wizard. Pending changes in a schedule scenario are not transferred to the Master Schedule when the scenario is published.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Select the dates from which to delete items in the Select Dates screen, then click Next.
    Warning
    Any item that overlaps the dates and times selected will be deleted, even if it overlaps by as little as a minute.
  7. In the Select State Types screen, select one or more states. Then click Next.
  8. Fill in the Select Breaks, Select Meals, Select Exceptions, Select Time Off or Select Marked Time screen that appears next. Then click Finish.

The view reappears. If Auto-Commit was on, your changes are committed to the schedule. If not, the changes are in a Pending mode.

Select activities

To complete the Select Activities screen in the Delete Multiple Wizard:

  1. Select any combination of multi-site activities and activities.
    You can expand business units to display their multi-site activities and sites, and expand sites to display their activities. Only objects that were selected at the last time that you clicked Get data are available. By default, all are selected.
  2. Click Next to apply your selections and continue, or click Cancel to make no changes and close the wizard.

Select agents

To fill in the Select Agents screen in the Delete Multiple Wizard:

  1. Select any combination of agents.
    You can select individual agents from multiple sites and multiple teams, or you can select whole teams or whole sites. Only agents who are selected on the Object pane’s Agents tree and who can work on activities that are selected in the first page of this wizard are available for selection.
    The list of available agents is also affected by the filter dialog check box Include agents with matching secondary skills.
  2. If you want, select Delete only if there are no errors and/or Show warnings.
    • If you select the Delete only if there are no errors check box, then when you try to save the new items, WFM will not delete any of them if the server returns any schedule validation errors.
    • If you select the Show warnings check box, WFM displays any schedule validation warnings that would be generated if you were to delete the items from the agents' schedules.
      If schedule validation errors also occur, WFM does not delete any items from the schedule.
  3. If you are deleting items from:
    • The Master Schedule and you have the Approve Changes security permission, you can select the Auto-Commit deleted items check box to have your deletions immediately made to the Master Schedule. If you do not have the necessary security permission, this check box is cleared and disabled. In that case, any deletions that you make are Pending. They must be reviewed and approved before they can take effect in the Master Schedule.
    • A schedule scenario, you have the option to select the Auto-Commit deleted items check box. If you do, then your deletions are committed to your schedule scenario. If not, then your deletions go into a Pending state. They can be committed or rolled back by you using the Commit/Rollback Multiple wizard. Pending changes in a schedule scenario are not transferred to the Master Schedule when the scenario is published.
  4. Click Next to open the Select Dates screen.
    Click Cancel if you want to close the wizard without saving your selection.

Select dates

The Select Dates screen in the Delete Multiple Wizard contains a calendar.

    The Select State Type screen appears.
