What is a stats point?

A stats point is a counter object that can be placed on any subject and at any point in your organization. Its function is to count calls - as they pass - that match predefined parameters. The information collected by the stats point objects can then be selected and displayed on your display boards.

Adding a stats point

To add a stats point, select the Live stats tab and click on the Stats points button.

There is no limit to the number of stats points allowed in TIM Plus.

A new window will open, where you can configure the properties of your stats collection point, as explained in the section below. When you have entered all the parameters, click on the Add button to add the new stats point to the list.

A new window will open, allowing you to configure the properties of your stats point. Each tab in this window will be described below:

This feature will allow you to keep a copy of the previous stats for comparison purposes(e.g. you may want to compare today's stats with yesterdays or this weeks stats with last weeks). Select the tick-box provided to enable this feature.

In the example below, the Stats point is set for all users of Accounts team, in London site and it resets every day.

NOTE: There is no limit to the number of stats points you are allowed to have. This means that you could put several stats points at any one place, refreshing at different times (e.g. daily, weekly and monthly).
