What the statistics count

Which data myContactCenter records for reports and dashboards, what metrics such as connected, abandoned or undelivered mean, which time zone times are in and where the limits of the evaluation lie.

Reports and dashboards read four tables of the database:

Table One row per Written
Conversation statistics (ConversationTrackingStatistics) conversation when the conversation ends
Conversation details (ConversationTrackingDetails) state segment of a conversation — waiting, ringing, connected … when the conversation ends
Agent actions (AgentTrackingDetails) agent action — login, conversation, wrap-up, activity … when the action ends
Alarms (AlarmTracking) raising, change or acknowledgment of an alarm when the event occurs
  • Ongoing conversations are missing: a conversation only appears once it has ended. Wallboards and the supervisors’ modules show what is happening right now.
  • Entries are assigned by their start: a conversation counts toward the day on which it began; a login from 22:00 to 6:00 counts entirely toward the day of the login.
  • myContactCenter adds the wrap-up and activity that follow a conversation to that conversation retroactively, as well as its classification.
  • If a conversation changes skill — for example via a menu in the flow — it counts once: in the skill in which it ends, with the times and counters of the whole conversation. The field SkillPath records the path through the skills, for example “Reception > Sales”.

Conversations

Metric Meaning
Connected The conversation was connected to an agent at least once.
Abandoned The customer hung up before ever being connected — during an announcement, in the queue or while it was ringing at the agent. Callbacks never count as abandoned.
Rejected myContactCenter rejected the conversation: locked, closed, outside business hours, holiday, no agent logged in or available, too many waiting or too long a wait time. The reason is in the field RejectReason.
Unhandled (Timeout) The Maximum wait time has expired.
Undelivered The conversation never reached an agent: it was abandoned, ran into the Maximum wait time or waited or rang without being connected.
Transferred An agent transferred it — internally or to an external target.
Voicemail, announcement The customer left a voicemail or heard an announcement.
Reviewed, Corrected A supervisor reviewed the reply, the agent corrected it.
Wait time the time in the queue
Ringing time the time during which it rang at agents
Time until connected wait and ringing time until the connection; in a second version (TotalDurationUntilConnect) including the time in the flow
Talk time the time during which the conversation was connected or on hold
Total duration the time from start to end

Agents

Metric Meaning
Login (Logon) from login to logoff
Presented A conversation rang at the agent.
Connected The agent accepted it; plus the talk time.
On hold (Hold) the time during which the agent held the customer
Reviewed, Corrected reviewing and correcting emails
Transferred The agent transferred the conversation.
Wrap-up (Wrapup) number and duration of wrap-ups
Activity number and duration of activities, with their name and whether they count as busy
Idle the time during which the agent was free

In the templates, efficiency or utilization means the connected conversations divided by the offered ones.

Time zones

The statistics store all times in UTC. They are displayed as follows:

Where Period Times shown
report in the Administration or the Agent in the local time of your computer local time of your computer
automatic report in the Timezone to display report of the appointment time zone of the appointment
file name and email of an automatic report – time zone of the appointment
dashboards filters on the stored values UTC
templates Alarms by alarmtype and Alarms by time in local time, converted UTC

If the server, the Administration and the appointments have the same time zone, the period and the display match everywhere.

Limits

  • The Administration and the Agent read the data for reports and dashboards directly from the database, see Ports and connections, and do the calculations on their own computer — without a time limit. Long periods with detail tables take correspondingly long.
  • The dashboard queries have no time filter: SQL Server reads the entire statistics every time a dashboard loads. Narrow them down with filters.
  • The server runs automatic reports one after the other, see Automatic reports.
  • Names of designs, reports and dashboards may be at most 250 characters long.
