Work items routed via Enhanced Omni-Channel are not immediately rerouted from the agent to a queue when the agent updates their presence status to a busy status.
If an agent receives a work item in his Omni-Channel sidebar or utility item but does not accept it and then the agent changes his Presence Status to a status configured as 'Busy', the work item will remain in their sidebar or utility item indefinitely unless:
This is expected behavior in Enhanced Omni-Channel. Unlike Standard Omni-Channel, work items routed via Enhanced Omni-Channel are NOT automatically rerouted when an agent switches to a Busy presence status.
The work item remains in the agent's sidebar or utility item until one of three things occurs:
(1) the agent goes Offline,
(2) the agent's Presence Configuration has 'Allow agents to decline work requests' enabled and the agent manually declines, or
(3) the Push Time-Out is configured in the Routing Configuration and the timeout limit is reached. For Standard Omni-Channel behavior, see Standard Omni-Channel Work Item Behavior.
