Problem with creating a channel for customer service

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

When I try to create an email channel through Home\Guided channel setup 

I receive an message you need CSR manager or System admin or Sytem customizer access to configure email channel.

I have system admin rights. 

Why can't I create an email channel? What is wrong?

I am new to Customer service and we would like to start using the product.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Karin Alberts-Erlandsson,

    I checked the doc which says that you should have full privileges to all the tables is ok. So I think System Admin right is enough.

    Customer Service admin center | Microsoft Learn

    And I assign a user only System Admin right and can create those channels:

    So I'm not sure what's wrong. You could try to assign the user an extra security role 'Omnichannel administrator' to try again.

    If the issue persists, you would better raise a ticket.
