The report's results

Introduction

Breaks down your working day into half-hour segments and details important information about your incoming calls. See how many answered and abandoned calls you take, how long it takes you to answer them, 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.

Running the report

Click on the function button, on the top right-hand side of the main application window to access the Reports screen.

From this screen, either double-click on the Full Call Analysis report in the reports list or highlight the Full Call Analysis report and press the button, as shown below:

The following Report Selection Criteria window appears:

Select a report period

You need to select a time period for which you want the report to produce information for. You can select a pre-set period from the drop-down list, as shown above.

The default is set to Last Month (the period from the first day to the last day of the previous calendar month, and NOT the last 30 days).

Or enter your own custom period

If you want to specify a period not shown in the list, go back to the Select a report period field and select Custom Period from the drop-down list and then enter your Start and End dates and times manually into the boxes provided, as shown above.

Choose a site

If your system is set-up for multiple sites, you have the option of selecting a particular site here. Select the blank line (or leave the box empty) to report on all of your sites.

Choose a specific trunk group

You have the option of selecting a trunk group to concentrate on. Do this by selecting it from the drop-down list supplied.

Select a particular trunk

Choose to report on a particular trunk by typing its number in the box provided, or leave blank to report on all trunks.

Choose an extension group

You may want to concentrate on a specific group of extensions; in this case, select the group of interest from the drop-down list, or leave blank so as not to specify a particular extension group.

Choose a particular extension

To find out the top 50 calls made by one extension in particular, type that extension's number in the box provided.

Select calls to specific presented numbers

You can choose to report only on calls to specific a presented number or range of numbers by entering the number(s) as shown below:

Transferred calls

Similarly, you can opt to exclude calls that were answered as a result of a transfer from one party to another. This allows you to concentrate only on those extensions that take calls directly from outside your organisation, rather than those secondary extensions that receive the call after speaking with another party.
