Store Associate Status
The store associate status feature allows associates to set their status in the LiveConnect app as Available or Unavailable.
- Available status means store associates appear in the queue for new chat message requests.
- Unavailable status means store associates don’t appear in the queue for new chat message requests. For example, if there are no associates available in the queue of a particular store, new chat requests are routed to another store.
Store associates can access the set availability status feature by going to the upper right corner of the Messages pane in the LiveConnect app and selecting their associate profile where their initials and an indicator of their status are displayed.
