Areas
The following sections outline the content of the collection. Each section includes links to the corresponding articles and samples.
Unified routing
Channel-based presence
A core feature of this scenario is the flexibility of channel presence management for agents. Depending on the volume and urgency of different types of customer inquiries, agents can adjust the flow of incoming channel requests to suit their preferences and availability. For instance, an agent can pause the incoming calls channel if they want to focus on chats or cases, or the other way around. This way, agents can optimize their productivity and customer satisfaction.
This sample approach is to use a channel-centric solution by setting up a separate Advanced Queue for each relevant channel. This allows for the use of the native Assignment MethodAssignment Ruleset functionality and reduces latency between Agent Channel selection and assignments.

Set up agent capacity for custom entities
In Dynamics 365 Customer Service, you can configure capacity-based routing for entities to supplement the case (incident) entity. Learn more at Set up agent capacity for custom entities, where we provide two approaches—one no-code and one low-code—to perform the previously mentioned actions.
Omnichannel
Custom record identification
To identify a customer in the contact center, you might have to apply custom search criteria, based on the information that the customer provides. This approach will help you quickly and efficiently find the customer's profile and access their records. In OOB, you can search by name, phone number, and email address. However, you might want to search by account number or other relevant data. This article explains how to customize the search criteria.

Sample context parsing in JavaScript
Context variables play a crucial role in optimizing customer service workflows and enhancing agent productivity. They provide essential context for effective communication and decision-making.
If you're working with web resources, you can access context variables from custom JavaScript code. This allows you to enhance the user experience by dynamically adjusting behavior based on the context.

AgentScript and macro samples
Agent scripts are essential tools for minimizing human errors during customer interactions. They provide structured guidance to agents, ensuring consistent and efficient resolution processes. These scripts come in two main forms: text-based guidance and macros. Macros simplify repetitive tasks, allowing agents to handle complex actions with a single click. By incorporating these elements, teams can optimize workflows and improve overall operational efficiency.

AI
AI case deflection
Emails have unstructured content. Routing rules based on subject/body text aren't effective.
Human intervention is required for proper categorization. The case would need to be re-assigned to the right owner. The customer might want to implement a custom AI model before engaging Unified Routing.
This content describes a proposal approach by using ARC rules and AI Builder.
Learn more at Route or deflect cases using AI Builder.
Summarize Dynamics 365 Knowledge Base articles with ChatGPT
The current integration of Copilot Studio with Knowledge Base articles only offers article links without providing a summary that can be used in chat conversations.
By integrating ChatGPT with Copilot Studio, the gap is bridged. This way, knowledge articles are summarized directly within the chat conversation.
