If an agent rejects a chat how can it route back to the same agent if no other agent is available to accept the chat(Agent Workspace)?

If the agent clicks on Reject & there is no other agent available to route to. In this situation, how can we configure to get the chat routed back to the same agent who is available?

Did you find a solution for this? It seems to be a very common scenario and might not have been accounted by ServiceNow's design.

Hi,

 

You can do that here Advanced Work Assignment > Settings > Reject Reasons and make sure Reassignable is true.

and is there any option to notify the end user that the chat has been re-assigned?
