If there is no union, the entire list of dispositions is presented. If there are no possible dispositions on the user’s UI, they will be stuck with that workitem on their screen and unable to get any other ACD worktems. They can handle non-ACD workitems, but the un dispositioned workitems will stack up on their UI until someone fixes the bad configuration.
