    If the Event Type is System, then you can trigger the following events:

    • Disposition: You can trigger an event to navigate to a particular page.

    • Login: When you create an Event Type of Login, it enables you to trigger an action based on a login event in the agent window. 
    • Log off: When you create an Event Type of Log off, it enables you to trigger an action based on a Log off event in the agent window. 
    • Not Ready: If the agent status is Not Ready, you can create an event to move to the source page.
    • Ready: If the agent status is Ready, you can create an event to navigate to a source page.
    • Wrap-Up: You can create an event for an agent if the agent wants to log off.
