System Warnings
This page covers common warnings and errors you may encounter while managing your AI Workforce, and exactly what to do about each one.
Recruitment Pipeline Warnings
Digital Worker Stuck in PENDING
If your Digital Worker has been in PENDING status for more than 5 minutes, the hiring pipeline may have stalled.
Steps to resolve:
Refresh the dashboard
Check your internet connection
If the status hasn’t moved after 10 minutes, contact us with the worker’s name and the time the hire was submitted
Digital Worker Shows Error
The onboarding pipeline encountered an error. This is uncommon but can happen due to:
A network interruption during the Tenma recruitment interview
A temporary issue in the Agntic processing pipeline
Steps to resolve:
Note the error message displayed on the worker’s profile
Start a new recruitment with Tenma
If the new hire also fails, contact support and include the error message
Banner: “Your Team Members Are Paused”
This is an account-level issue, not a worker status. Your workers are still Active, but channels are suspended due to billing.
Common causes:
Trial period expired
Payment method failed
Subscription cancelled
Steps to resolve:
Go to Billing in your dashboard
Update your payment method or resubscribe
Channels will automatically resume once payment is confirmed
Work Channel Warnings
Call Transfer Disabled After Phone Number Removed
If you remove a Digital Worker’s phone number while Call Transfer is active:
Call Transfer is automatically disabled
Your routing rules are preserved , not deleted
To restore: Add a new phone number to the worker and re-enable Call Transfer. Your saved routing rules will still be there.
Email Channel in Grace Period
If your minute balance is insufficient to renew an Email Channel, it enters a 7-day Grace Period .
If the Grace Period expires without restoration, the email address is permanently released and cannot be recovered.
Steps to resolve:
Top up your minute balance via Billing → Payment Methods
Go to the worker’s Work Channels tab
Click Restore Channel before the 7-day window closes
Call Transfer Number Failing Validation
Transfer destination phone numbers must use E.164 format : a + sign followed by the country code and full number.

If the trigger is too vague (e.g., “when appropriate”), the Digital Worker may not recognise when to fire it. Rewrite the trigger with concrete conditions.
