Previously, the ability to use more than one routing attribute at the same time was in controlled release in the United States and Australia. In this release, it has become generally available in the United States, Australia, and Europe.
A routing attribute lets you narrow the pool of agents assigned to the ACD skill who are eligible to receive an interaction. For example, you could require that the agent has a certain license or certification. Multiple routing attributes let you further narrow the pool of eligible agents. For example, you could specify that an agent with the correct skill must also have a certain license and be able to speak a certain language to be eligible to receive the interaction. This gives you more control over which agents an interaction can route to without creating a lot of ACD skills.
To set up multiple routing attributes, you need to apply attributes to your agent user profiles. You then use Studio scripts to route interactions to agents based on the ACD skill and the chosen attributes. To avoid narrowing your agent pool so far that interactions become stuck in queue with no matching agents, it is best to use no more than five routing attributes per routing action.
You must have dynamic delivery enabled for your system to use multiple routing attributes.

Previously, voicemail message timestamps in CXone Attendant displayed in the business unit time zone with no option to adjust the setting to reflect the user's local time zone.
In this release, you can adjust the voicemail message timestamps so that each user sees them in the time zone configured for their Contact Center user profile. This makes it easier for you and your agents to find voicemails according to the time they were received.
To make this change, you must have administrator permissions in CXone Attendant.

C3 Payments is a PCI-compliant payment tool. It offers a system of workflows for contacts to make a one-time secure payment.

The back-end communication between RingCentral and CXone requires authentication. This validates the communication for security purposes. Previously, this authentication was set up to accept a username and password as valid credentials. In this release, CXone adopted OAuth as the new authentication method. You must work with NICE or your own developers to implement OAuth. The existing username/password method will continue to be supported; however, it will eventually be removed. If you have an integration with RingCentral, plan to update the authentication method. Work with your Contact Center Account Representative on a roadmap and deadline.

Generative response reporting will let you monitor generative search queries, feedback, and click-through rate on source articles. This will help you to make informed decisions about content and settings to improve user satisfaction and increase utilization.
A new method of cross-platform authorization will work with OIDC configurations to provide faster authentication. This will allow Enlighten Copilot to work seamlessly.
