The Call Scoring report provides a comprehensive analysis of previously scored calls, enabling you to quickly and easily evaluate the answers to them. All questions are summarised in a clear, easy-to-understand format and are shown separately, grouped into their respective categories.

TIM Plus allows you to create your own score cards and rate any call for evaluation purposes. The scores can be based on any combination of questions with the following answers:

  • Yes/No
  • A range
  • Multiple choice

These filters allow you to be very specific, when deciding the call information you would like to display in the final report.If you do not want to select any filters, simply press theNextbutton to skip.

Please find a brief description of all filters below:

Call type

This filter allows you to define the type of call you would like to report on. If you would like to report on all calls, leave the default setting as All calls.

Reporting_filter
FilterCall type
ValueAll calls

If you want to report on one call type in particular, expand the drop-down list and select from the available options.

CLI

The Caller Line Identification (CLI) is a phone number that calls your organisation. This is sometimes withheld by the person making the call.

You may choose to report on calls from a particular CLI or from numbers beginning with a particular CLI. For example, for calls from Tri-Line you would enter 02072652600.

Reporting_filter
FilterCLI
Value02072652600

This filter accepts the comparison operators ! and * (e.g. to exclude calls from Tri-Line, you would use !020726526*). To report on more than one CLI, user a comma to separate the entries.

Dialled number

To filter calls to a specific number, type the number that was dialled in the box provided. The dialled number can be a number that you dial out, or a DDI number within your organisation that someone dials in to get to a particular extension.

To filter calls to a specific area, a partial number may be entered (e.g. 0033, for calls to France). 

Reporting_filter
FilterDialled number
Value0033

This filter accepts the comparison operators ! and (e.g. to exclude calls to 0207 265, enter !0207265* ).

Duration

To filter calls above or below a particular duration, enter the number of seconds and the relevant symbol in the box provided. This filter allows you to specify a range (-) or use comparison operators (>, <, ! and *).

Reporting_filter
FilterDuration
Value>1800

In the above example, the filter will look for calls longer than 1800 seconds (30 minutes). Alternatively, you may want to exclude calls below a certain threshold (e.g. below 3 seconds).

Selecting the report options

This section allows you to further narrow down your report results, by excluding certain types of calls or sorting the results in a particular manner. The filters are fairly self-explanatory. For example, if you would like to exclude weekend calls from the report, simply tick the option to exclude weekend calls. If you would like to ignore missed calls shorter than a specific duration, simply enter the duration in the box.
