I'm not Receiving Queue Calls 

"YOU HAVE NO QUEUES" error may appear for call center agents if their webphone (wp) device is not connected to a queue. 

If you are a call center agent or call center supervisor, you may get an error message within your v42 Client Portal if you are using a webphone without your "wp" device in the queue. 

You can identify your webphone device extension by the "wp" acronym.
