# Agent capacity issue in customer support assignment
12+
13+
This article addresses the issue where customer support representatives (CSRs) in Dynamics 365 Customer Service receive fewer than the configured number of customers before their status automatically changes to **Busy**.
14+
15+
## Symptoms
16+
17+
Customer support representatives (CSRs) are configured to handle a specific quota of customers (for example, five customers per CSR). However, their status changes to **Busy** after receiving fewer customers (for example, three customers), thereby preventing further customer assignments.
18+
19+
## Cause
20+
21+
This issue can occur due to the configuration of the workstream capacity units. Each customer case is assigned a specific number of capacity units, which determines how many customers an agent can handle simultaneously.
22+
23+
For example, consider the scenario:
24+
25+
- Each customer case is configured to consume 30 capacity units.
26+
- The total capacity assigned to the agent is 90 units.
27+
28+
In this scenario, even though the agent may be configured to handle five customer cases, they can only handle three simultaneously due to the total capacity limit (3 cases × 30 units each = 90 units total.) Once this capacity is reached, the agent's status changes to **Busy**.
29+
30+
## Resolution
31+
32+
To resolve this issue, adjust the total capacity units assigned to the affected agents. This ensures that the agent can handle the intended number of customers simultaneously.
33+
34+
1. Determine the required capacity:
35+
36+
- Identify the number of customers an agent is expected to handle (for example, five customers.)
37+
- Determine the capacity units consumed by each customer case (for example, 30 units per case.)
38+
- Calculate the total capacity needed for the agent: Required capacity = Number of customers × Capacity units per case. For example: For five customers, the required capacity = 5 × 30 = 150 units.
39+
40+
2. Update the agent's capacity profile:
41+
42+
- Go to the Dynamics 365 Customer Service admin settings.
43+
- Navigate to the capacity profiles for agents.
44+
- Increase the total capacity units for the affected agents to the calculated value (for example, 150 units for five customers.)
45+
46+
3. Save and test changes:
47+
48+
- Save the updated capacity profile.
49+
- Test the configuration to ensure agents can now handle the desired number of customer cases without their status changing to **Busy**.
50+
51+
For detailed instructions on managing capacity profiles, see [Create and manage capacity profiles](/dynamics365/customer-service/administer/capacity-profiles).

# Can't provision channels in Omnichannel Admin Center
12+
13+
This article provides guidance for resolving provisioning issues when the Omnichannel Admin Center application appears in read-only view.
14+
15+
## Symptoms
16+
17+
When you try to provision a channel in the Omnichannel Admin Center, you encounter the following issues:
18+
19+
- The Omnichannel Admin Center appears in read-only view.
20+
- You can't manage or provision channels through the Omnichannel Admin center.
21+
22+
## Cause
23+
24+
The Omnichannel Admin center has been deprecated. All functionalities previously available in the Omnichannel Admin center have been integrated into the Customer Service admin center. For more information, see [Deprecations in Dynamics 365 Customer Service](/dynamics365/customer-service/implement/deprecations-customer-service#provisioning-of-omnichannel-for-customer-service-in-power-platform-admin-center-is-deprecated).
25+
26+
## Resolution
27+
28+
To successfully provision the chat (or other) channels, follow these steps:
29+
30+
1. Navigate to your environment.
31+
2. Open the **Customer Service admin center** application.
32+
3. Go to **Channels** under **Customer Support**.
33+
4. Select **Manage** to configure the channels.
34+
5. Check the appropriate boxes to provision the channels that you want to use.
35+
6. Select **Save**.
36+
37+

# Chat channel provisioning fails in Dynamics 365 due to license issue
12+
13+
This article provides guidance to resolve the issue where the chat channel provisioning fails in Dynamics 365 Customer Service due to a license issue.
14+
15+
## Symptoms
16+
17+
When you try to provision a chat channel in Dynamics 365 Customer Service, the system reports that there's no license available. This occurs even though licenses have been purchased.
18+
19+
## Cause
20+
21+
The issue might occur if the required Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service Enterprise or Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Plan license isn't available or assigned.
22+
23+
Licenses currently attached may be insufficient, such as basic or other messaging channel licenses, and don't include the necessary Customer Service Enterprise license required for provisioning the chat channel.
24+
25+
## Resolution
26+
27+
To resolve this issue, follow the steps below:
28+
29+
1. Verify whether the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service Enterprise license or Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Plan license is purchased and available in the tenant.
30+
31+
2. Ensure the license is assigned to the appropriate users.
32+
33+
3. Ensure the users have active subscription to the appropriate add-ons.
34+
35+
To confirm the required licenses and provisioning prerequisites, see [Omnichannel for Customer Service system requirements](/dynamics365/customer-service/implement/system-requirements-omnichannel).

# Dynamics 365 Contact Center workspace isn't visible
12+
13+
Users may encounter an issue where they're unable to see or access the Dynamics 365 Contact Center workspace, even though they have been assigned the appropriate licenses and roles. This article provides an explanation of the issue and steps to resolve it.
14+
15+
## Symptoms
16+
17+
Users with Dynamics 365 Contact Center licenses are unable to locate or access the Dynamics 365 Contact Center workspace within the system. And the workspace doesn't appear in the Dynamics 365 environment, despite license and role assignment.
18+
19+
## Cause
20+
21+
The Dynamics 365 Contact Center workspace and the Customer Service workspace can't be used simultaneously within the same Dynamics 365 organization. This limitation prevents the Contact Center workspace from being displayed if the Customer Service workspace is already in use.
22+
23+
## Resolution
24+
25+
> [!NOTE]
26+
> Existing organizations using the Customer Service workspace can't simultaneously display the Contact Center workspace. A separate environment is required to use the Contact Center workspace.
27+
28+
To enable the Dynamics 365 Contact Center workspace, follow these steps:
29+
30+
1. Create a new environment:
31+
32+
- Navigate to the [Power Platform admin center](https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/).
33+
- Select **Environments** on the left navigation pane.
34+
- Select **+ New** to create a new environment.
35+
36+
2. Deploy the Contact Center app:
37+
38+
- During the provisioning of the new environment, ensure that you select the **Contact Center** app for deployment.
39+
- Complete the setup process as prompted.
40+
41+
3. Switch to the new environment:
42+
43+
- Users who need access to the Dynamics 365 Contact Center workspace should switch to the newly created environment.
44+
- Ensure that appropriate licenses and roles are assigned within this new environment.
45+
