Key Features
- Total Agent Summary: Overview of the status of all agents assigned within the AWA system, helping you understand agent availability and workload distribution.
- Work Items Metrics: Detailed counts of work items including queued, pending acceptance, duplicates, rejected, and those meeting channel or utilization conditions, enabling precise tracking of assignment efficiency.
- Query Performance Statistics: Metrics such as max, min, mean, and median query response times, along with total query counts, provide insights into system responsiveness for fetching active and unassigned work items.
- Record Watchers Monitoring: Tracks the presence and activity (onEntry, onExit, onChange calls) of record watchers essential for channel eligibility, work item handling, and workload monitoring, ensuring proper event handling.
- Queue Management Data: Information on the number of active queues per channel, their schedule status, and whether they are marked active, helping administrators manage queue availability and scheduling.
- Agent Status by Channel: Breakdown of agent statuses specific to each channel, supporting targeted resource management.
- Queue-Specific Details: Includes schedule status, agent availability, work item counts (queued and pending acceptance), and routing time statistics (max, min, mean, median) for work item assignments, providing comprehensive queue performance insights.
Key Outcomes
By utilizing the Advanced Work Assignment Stats page, ServiceNow administrators can:
- Monitor workload distribution and agent engagement effectively across channels and queues.
- Identify bottlenecks or delays in work item routing and acceptance through detailed timing and queue metrics.
- Ensure that record watchers are functioning properly to maintain accurate eligibility and workload calculations.
- Make informed decisions to optimize resource allocation, improve response times, and enhance overall assignment efficiency within the ServiceNow platform.
- Access node-specific statistics to diagnose and troubleshoot performance issues on particular instances.
Administrators (admin or awa_admin) can monitor Advanced Work Assignment activity by reviewing information on the Advanced Work Assignment Stats page.
