Omnichannel for Customer Service offers a suite of capabilities that extend the power of Dynamics 365 Customer Service Enterprise to enable organizations to instantly connect and engage with their customers across digital messaging channels. An additional license is required to access Omnichannel for Customer Service. For more information, see the Dynamics 365 Customer Service pricing overview and Dynamics 365 Customer Service pricing plan pages.

When you sign in to the Omnichannel for Customer Service app, the Omnichannel Agent Dashboard is the default view. You can set any dashboard as the default view by selecting the Set As Default option. The dashboard displays the following streams:

• My work items
• Open work items
• Closed work items

My work items

In the My work items section, you can see the conversations (work items) that you are actively working on. Select the ellipsis and select the Open option to open the work item in a session.

Open work items

In the Open work items section, you can see the conversations (work items) that are in an open state from all queues in which you are added as member. Select the ellipsis and select the Assign to me option to assign the work item to yourself. When you select a work item, you get a notification, and when you accept it, a session starts and the customer summary or case page loads.

The work item that you pick is moved from the Open work items section to the My work items section. If you reject the request, then the work item remains in the Open work items section.

Closed work items

In the Closed work items section, you can see all the conversations that you've closed on the same day. To view a closed work item, select its ellipsis button (...), and then select Open to view the details.

When you open a record from the Closed work items section, you can view the attributes of the closed conversation record. This will not reopen or reactivate the conversation.

Sort work items

On the dashboard, you can sort work items by the following categories:

• Modified On
• Work distribution mode (for open work items only)
• Customer
• Work stream
• Created On
• Transfer Count
