Handle conflicts when saving schedules
When there are other users that make schedule changes for the same group of agents and the same schedule period, your changes might sometimes conflict with theirs.
A conflict occurs when you try to save a change for an agent’s schedule on a date, and that schedule was recently changed by another user. A message is shown to inform you that there is a conflict and for which agents and days.
The recommended way to handle a conflict is to accept the other user’s changes. If you choose to do so, the other user's changes are loaded to your schedule for you to review before you save again.
NOTE If you choose the accept the other user’s changes, you only lose your changes for the days and agents that are listed in the conflict information window. All other changes are saved.
