Scheduling Combined Workstreams in Zendesk
How are combined workstreams scheduled in Zendesk?
In Zendesk, combined workstreams don't appear in the staffing panels on the schedule page. Instead, the scheduling involves calculating a coefficient based on the full-time equivalent (FTE) of both combined and individual workstreams. This coefficient is then applied to determine the scheduled number for individual workstreams, ensuring efficient task allocation.
