<h2>Introduction</h2>

<img class="screenshot" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_plus/call_analysis.png" alt="Call analysis" />

<p>The Call analysis report breaks down your working day into half-hour 
segments and details important information about your calls. You get a 
clear graphical image showing incoming, outgoing and abandoned calls.</p>

<p>This is broken down into half hour timeslots, showing how long it 
takes you to answer or how long people are waiting before they give up 
and abandon the call. These figures are shown as maximum and averages 
so you can more effectively plan your staffing requirements throughout 
each working day. You can add numerous filters which are described here 
in detail, if you want to be even more specific in the information 
displayed.</p>

<p>You can also optimise to exclude weekends from this report, when perhaps 
not many calls are being made or received, and so as not to distort the 
averages. You can also concentrate on incoming or outgoing calls or 
look at all calls.</p>
