Overview
The Hopper is Empty notification appears on the Agent interface when the system detects that there are no Leads in the Campaign to dial. The Agent will see the red Hopper Empty notice when the Hopper shows zero Leads.

Before you Begin
There are four possible reasons why there are no Leads in the Hopper:
- There are no Dial-able Leads, and your List(s) need to be reset.
- Campaign Lead Filter or Local Call Time. It is too early or too late for your Leads to be called based on the Call Time rule of your Campaign.
- No active List in the Campaign. Turn on a list to have Dial-able Leads.
- Hopper was recently reset, or the Hopper Level is too low and running out of Leads too soon.

Potential Solutions
7.) Based on what the report shows, you can determine why the Hopper is empty, and which steps to take to rectify the issue.
- No Active Lists - Total leads that won't be called because the list is inactive.
- Solution: Turn on Lists to have more Dial-able Leads, see Activate a Lead List within a Campaign.
- Reset Lead List - Total Leads that can be called once you have reset all of your Lists.
- Solution: Reset your Lists to re-dial them.
- Check campaign’s local time rule - Total Leads within active Lists that won't be called because they are outside of the Local Call Time rule.
- Solution: Check what time rule is set for your Campaign, see Configuring Campaign Call Times.
- Check Campaign’s GMT Lead filter - Total Leads within active Lists that won't be called due to the Campaigns GMT Lead filter.
- Solution: Check what time zone rule is set for your Campaign, see Configuring Campaign Call Times.
- Check campaign’s call count limit - Total Leads that will not be called because of the Campaign's Call Count Limit settings.
- Solution: You can reset your Active Lists making your Leads dialable again, see Resetting Lead Lists from a Campaign. To prevent this issue from happening again you can raise one or more Max Attempt values for the Re-dialable Statuses in the Dispositions tab.
- Hopper Level/Hopper was reset - The Hopper was recently reset.
- Solution: Make sure Hopper Level is set properly based on the number of Agents logged in to your Campaign, see Increase Hopper Level. The Hopper will automatically fill Leads by itself after approximately one minute.
