The Missed Calls report analyses your missed calls to see which callers have and haven't been responded to. Each missed call is given a priority rating depending on how many times and how often a caller attempted to make contact. The time window in which a call must be responded to, if it is to be considered handled and   it , is user-definable.

This report allows you to easily report on any missed calls. The report has two clear tabs, Missed and Handled calls. The Missed calls tab shows calls that were missed but never responded to. The Handled calls tab shows calls that were missed initially but eventually responded to. This report is ideal for identifying lost calls and lost business.
