   IMPORTANT   A user's email addresses must be valid and configured on the customer SMTP prior to adding a new user to Calabrio ONE or updating an existing user's email address in Calabrio ONE. Otherwise, Calabrio ONE cannot send emails to the user's email address. This message is only applicable to organizations that have configured users to receive activation and welcome emails to set their passwords.

4. Enter their Employment number. The employment number is searchable in WFM. It can also be added to the agent description, to be shown together with the agent’s name when agents are listed in for example reports and schedules.

   The Identity logon is used for identity authentication. Enter the ID from the external authentication system. The ID must be unique for each agent.

   IMPORTANT   When you enter an email address as the Logon in Calabrio WFM, an email is immediately triggered and sent to the user. With this email, the user can create a password and log in. Therefore, do not enter users’ email addresses until you are ready for them to log in.

7. Select the permission Roles that apply for this employee.
8. Select the Workflow control set for this employee. The workflow control set defines for example how far ahead the agent can see their schedule, for which period they can send absence requests or shift trade requests and enter their preferences on how to work. A workflow control set is also needed for users who need to view schedules and who do not have permissions to view unpublished schedules. This is common for team leaders.
9. Select what day of the week the Work week starts on to define the period for which the contract rules are validated. These rules control the weekly rest, the maximum weekly work time and the minimum weekly work time. The Work week starts on setting also affects the day off optimization settings that control the number of days off per week and the day off placement on weekends. The two last days of the work week are implicitly defined as weekend days.
10. Select the Time zone for this employee. The agent’s time zone controls how they view things like shifts and staffing. In some areas of the product, times are always shown according to the employee’s time zone. In other areas it is possible to select the viewing time zone. The time zone is from the IANA database.
