Updated: 08/23/2024

Applies To 

  • 8x8 Contact Center
  • Agent Workspace
  • Post Processing

Resolution

To resolve this issue, you need to sync the computer time, otherwise you may see some negative time or time differences when you are handling transactions, or during post processing time. 
  1. To do this on a Windows machine, right-click the date and time in the right hand corner of your screen.
  2. Select Adjust Date/Time.
  3. Select Date & Time.
  4. Select Sync Now. Depending on your organization's security settings, you may need your IT department to assist you in changing these settings.

If the issue still persists after adjusting the computer's date and time:
  1. Log in to Agent Workspace.
  2. Select Menu.
  3. Select Profile.
  4. Select Reset preferences to default.
If the issue still persists after both of these, clear the cache and cookies on the browser. Test with other browsers.
Should all these steps still not work, create a case with 8x8 Support and supply the results of the tests above with a console log attached to your ticket.

Cause

This is happening because the computer time is not in sync with internet time.
