March
Product features and enhancements
We added these new features and enhancements to Webex WFO in March 2026.
Performance Management
Coaching session override update (March 24): We updated the system to display a confirmation modal when you schedule a coaching session on an activity marked as non-overrideable. The message now reads: You're about to override the [Activity Name] activity, which cannot be usually overridden. You can then choose to cancel and pick a different date or click override to proceed.
Product terminology update (March 4): We renamed Smart Coaching to Auto Coaching across the Webex WFO.
QM
Updated call recordings for agents (March 24): We updated call recordings so that all consulted participants in a call are now listed as separate contacts, each with their own associated screen recordings.
Styling updates for Contact Queue pages (March 24): We updated the styling on the Contact Queue and Contact Queue Administration pages for an improved and more consistent user experience.
Self-Approve Contact Evaluation permission update (March 17): We updated the "Self-Approve Contact Evaluation" permission to allow the original evaluator to also be the "Approver" on an evaluation.
KPI dashboard filter update (March 4): We updated the filters in the KPI dashboard to use the new multi select tree drop-down.
WFM
Intraday re-forcasting update (Week of March 23, v. 2603.15.1): We enabled users to take staffing decisions based on re-forcasted agents. This update uses the latest intraday inputs to refresh agent forecasts, helping users make more accurate and timely staffing decisions during the day.
UI enhancements in the RTA configuration web (Week of March 16, v. 2603.9.1): We've introduced several usability improvements in the State groups and Rule mappings tabs:
-
State groups are now sorted in alphabetical order.
-
When users click Save in the State groups tab, the not defined state group is converted to ungrouped states in the Rule mapping tab.
-
Hovering over a state in the State groups tab now displays the state code.
-
In the Rule mappings tab, users can copy and paste rules across multiple cells.
Notification settings update (Week of March 16, v. 2603.9.1): We updated the Recipients section of Notification settings to hide built-in roles.
Upcoming cloud infrastructure update for WFM: We are making an improvement to Calabrio’s cloud infrastructure to enhance the security, performance, and reliability of our WFM platform.
IMPORTANT Action required for customers who meet the following conditions. If you have a private end point and your organization uses CRA and/or Teleopti Log Server (TLS) to connect directly to Cisco databases, this change could affect your Cisco database integrations. This message is informational for you, but the required change must be completed by your IT/security/network team, not typical end users or admins. The change should require less than 30 minutes of work. To make this easy, you can access the short technical instructions here: Action required: WFM Database Connectivity. The required action must be completed by April 5, 2026.
New page for viewing Forecasts on the web (Week of March 9, v. 8.2603.2.37): We have introduced a new page to view forecasts with an enhanced chart and workload and skill grid viewing at different zoom levels, providing a similar viewing experience to the WFM client. This enhanced forecast page will not replace the current forecast page. Editing capabilities will be added in a future release. More information is available here: View forecasts in the web.
RTA configuration in web (Week of March 9, v. 8.2603.2.37): RTA configuration is now available in WFM Adherence web, giving users a streamlined way to manage RTA settings. As part of this update, we deactivated RTA configuration in the Windows Client to reduce duplication and simplify administration. Users can now configure a single state group for logged-out states and define a default state group for new or ungrouped states, helping ensure consistent and easier state management. More information is available here: Manage state groups on the web, Manage adherence rules on the web, Manage rule mappings on the web.
Predicted ASA in client scheduler (Week of March 9, v. 8.2603.2.37): Added support to display Predicted Average Speed of Answer (ASA) directly in the client scheduler, allowing users to view ASA within the scheduling view.
Schedule navigation improvement (Week of March 9, v. 8.2603.2.37): We updated the Week view in Schedules web so that when a user clicks a day number, the system redirects them to the day view with the filters applied.
Budget group allowance management in web module (Week of March 9, v. 8.2603.2.37): We introduced the ability to manage Budget group allowances directly in WFM web, enabling users to configure absence allowance overrides without logging in to the WFM client. More information is available here: Create allowance for absence requests in the web.
Analytics
Updated Advanced Sentiment (March 10): We refined Advanced Sentiment to improve how the system handles false negative sentiment for customer speakers. This update reduces overly sensitive negative sentiment detection and more accurately predicts neutral sentiment in cases that were previously misclassified as negative, particularly for customer speakers.
Insights
WFM | Agent Dashboard - SPICE update (March 16): We introduced the WFM | Agent Dashboard - SPICE in the Insights Labs folder. This dashboard uses SPICE-enabled WFM datasets to deliver faster performance and includes up to 91 days of data for improved reporting.

Notification |
Fixed an issue where the Notify Agent feature in the Windows client scheduler returned an application error during schedule optimization. The system now completes schedule optimization without triggering an error. |

Issue |

Issue Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1079841 | WFM | Absence Planning | Fixed an issue that caused the Vacation Planning Pro Fetch Agents feature's pagination to not function correctly. When more than 100 agents were fetched and pagination appeared at the bottom of the screen, users could not select additional pages (for example, pages 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.). With this fix, administrators will be able to view the next set of agents when they click on the paginator while adding agents in a vacation bid process |

1070856 |
WFM |
Requests |
Fixed an issue where certain agents could not view or schedule overtime past 6:00 PM on specific days, such as Fridays, even when valid overtime hours were available. The system previously validated Site Open Hours using the UTC date instead of the agent’s local time zone. The system now uses the agent’s local time zone to validate the day of week correctly. |
