Stats Grid

A colour-coded stats grid shows the following information:

  • Green = value accepted.
  • Yellow = value is within the range of your lower threshold.
  • Red = value meets or exceeds your upper threshold.
  • White = no thresholds are configured for the statistic.

To edit the stats grid

  1. Click the Settings button above the stats grid. The Call Center Settings page appears, with the Stats Grid tab displayed.
  2. Configure the Lower and Upper Thresholds for the statistics you want to show on the stats grid.

Editing stats grid thresholds

  1. Click the General tab.
  2. Use the Service Level Agreement slider to specify a value that will be used to calculate the Service Level Percentage statistic. This value determines whether a call was answered in an acceptable amount of time (seconds).
  3. Use Filter Stats Grid by Queue to determine whether the stats grid is shown for all call queues or one specific call queue.
  4. Click Save.

Call Centre Reporting

In Manager Portal versions 1226 and later, the Portal can generate custom reports about call queues. These reports provide a graphical overview of call centre statistics over a given period of time. The reports can cover the entire call centre, queues, or individual agents. This granularity enables call centre supervisors to monitor their call centre.

To generate call centre reports:

  1. On the Call Center page, click the Reports tab.

Reports tab on the Call Center page

  1. Select a date range.
  2. Use the Type drop-down list to select the type of report you want to generate: Queue Stats, Agent Stats, Agent Availability, DNIS (Dialed Number) Stats, or Abandoned.

Queue Stats

The Queue Stats report allows supervisors to view specific attributes on a queue-by-queue basis based on user-configurable attributes.

Queue stats report

The drop-down list allows you to select the information that will appear on the report.

Queue report data selection

To change the available configuration fields, click the Table Settings gear from the pop up. When a list of check boxes appears, check the fields you want displayed and uncheck the ones you want to hide.

DNIS Stats

The DNIS stats report shows information based on the Dialed Number Identification Service (DNIS). DNIS is a telephone service that informs the receiver about a call that the caller dialed. DNIS is a common feature of 800 and 900 services. If you have multiple 800 or 900 numbers to the same destination, the DNIS tells you which number was called.

DNIS stats report

NOTE: You can click the checkboxes in the first column for DNIS statistics to graph them individually. Clicking the first column header (the bar graph icon) toggles all checkboxes on or off.

The stats available by DNIS mirror the call queue statistics above (Volume, Calls Handled, Calls Offered, Adjusted Calls Offered, To Vmail, Forwarded, Avg Talk Time, Avg After Call Work, Avg Hold Time, Service Level, Dial Transfers, Abandoned Calls, Adjusted Abandon Calls, Abandon Rate, Adjusted Abandon Rate, Avg Handle Time, Avg Answer Speed) plus Available Minutes (AM): overall time that all queue agents were in the Available state.

Abandoned Calls

The Abandoned Calls report shows call centre graphs for abandoned calls, organized by individual queues. Time is measured along the x axis and the number of calls abandoned is measured along the y axis. All of the abandoned calls for the queue appear below the graph, along with statistics about each individual call.
