Tasks
Nimbus can operate in different Task Distribution methods – individually configured in the Distribution Service Settings per Service. Accordingly, the "Tasks" widget will reflect different controls and task states (e.g. Pickup or Automatic distribution), as specified by the Service's Workflows.

"Active" Users and Nimbus Tasks
Nimbus tracks the User State in near real-time, which includes MS Teams presence and the In-Nimbus “Active” state. Whenever you or one of your team colleagues changes this "Active" state, Nimbus will determine if there are any task-blocking (e.g. MS Teams Status, Responsibility Profiles, Task Capacity) and change the Live View accordingly.
💡 The “Users" widget and “Availability” counter will reflect this immediately via color and counter updates.

State Columns
The following states are displayed in the “state” column and chart legend:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Available | Users who are "Active" and not handling other tasks. 💡Nimbus will distribute tasks to longest "Available" users first → the "Time in State" applies. |
|
Not Available
|
Users busy in call or other Nimbus task are not receiving invitations. 💡At the point of an incoming task, a different (available) user will be selected. If no one is available, the task will remain in "queued". |
| Inactive | Users that are set "Inactive" via any of the toggles in the Nimbus UI. 💡 The MS Teams presence is ignored in this case, Nimbus tasks will not be distributed. |
🔎USE STATE DEPENDENCIES
Several factors can influence your Nimbus User State and Service availability:
- Distribution Service Settings allow Nimbus to distribute tasks to Service Users even while "Away" or "Busy" in MS Teams.
-
Team Owners can also change the "Active" states of users within their Nimbus services.
💡 Affected users will see status changes mirrored within their Nimbus UI immediately (e.g. in Widgets, Dashboards, etc.). The "Active" setting can also be disabled via User Service Settings. - Team Users (Members) - All Nimbus users may manage their own "Active" state individually for each team they are part of, e.g. via Services Overview. They can however not change the state of others users.
Evaluating KPI trends
As part of Nimbus Reporting, widgets at the bottom show service KPI metrics. Out of the long-term data gathered, trends will be displayed in real time.

Trend Widgets
The widgets can be separated as follows:
Daily Metric (Numeric) |
Trend Arrows (Color and Direction) |
Historic look-back (Trendline Chart) |
|---|---|---|
|
Showcases the main metric gathered for the current productive day (data gathered starting at midnight). Metrics gathered are as follows:
|
The trend arrows highlight a comparative trend. The baseline for that trend is the standard deviation taken from data metrics mean average gathered in the last 30 days. A tendency is signaled in both direction and color:
|
The trend chart is a historic comparative look-back on the last 5 productive days of operation . Data point reflects the same time of day on previous productive days.
