Configuring Walk-up Experience

Customize your Walk-up Experience portal and configure appointments, notifications, walk-up venue locations, associated stockrooms, customer satisfaction surveys, and hours of operation to meet your required needs.

Walk-up Experience includes associated notifications to alert requesters when the location is closed or when an interaction is assigned to an agent. Pre-built customer satisfaction surveys capture user sentiment about the experience. Also included are several configurable tables for customizing your walk-up portal and service center experience. You can configure and specify the following features for your experience:

  • Configure an online check-in channel for requesters to join a walk-up queue before physically arriving at the walk-up location.
  • Access the pre-built Walk-up online check-in Experience widget for use in your Service Portal. Make minor label changes directly in the widget without customizing through the code.
  • Configure the physical walk-up location queue information to manage and administer the walk-up service centers.
  • Establish walk-up locations, set hours of operation, enable online check-in, determine assignment groups, associate stockrooms, as well as design the queue time display and position notification system.
  • Configure reasons for visits to a walk-up queue by location.
  • Add a logo and brand your portal and walk-up location to fit your style.
  • Access location-specific branding elements, such as logo images, for walk-up queues. These configuration options are found in the Walk-up Location Queue [wu_location_queue] table.

The following applications are included in the Administration module of the Walk-up Experience navigation bar:
