1602228 - Unable to Assign Organizational Unit and Job ID to a Service Agent

Symptom

When you try to assign Organizational Unit and Job ID to a Service Agent, you find that both fields are inactive. Therefore setting org unit and job ID is impossible.

Reproducing the Issue

  2. Select the Service Agents view.
  3. Select respective service agent and select the Edit button.
  4. In the General tab, the Organizational Unit and Job ID field are disabled.

Cause

The cause for the issue is that this service agent is an internal employee as well. His/her organizational and job assignment have to be maintained for employee role, not for service agent role.
