Events Repository in Forecasting

Updated 

The Events Repository allows you to create and manage events centrally within the Workforce Management (WFM) system. It helps you account for abnormal fluctuations in interaction volumes or average handling time caused by events not covered by typical seasonal, intra-week, or intra-day trends. Examples include festivals, sales promotions, and product launches.
