Workitem interactions

Workitems are documents that might be directed to agents, supervisors, or managers for handling. They include many media types, such as faxes or PDFs, that a user might have to view while they are handling interactions of another type, such as email.

You use the following options in the [interaction-workitem] section to configure Workitems:
