Abandon Delay Report

This page describes how you can use the (Queues folder) Abandon Delay Report to learn more about service quality by examining the number and percentage of interactions that were abandoned (or disconnected) while queued at a specific queue, and the percentage of abandoned interactions by service time interval.

Understanding the Abandon Delay Report

This report gauges service quality by indicating how many interactions were abandoned (or disconnected), as well as the percentage of interactions that were abandoned, while the interactions were queued at a specific queue, and the percentage of abandoned interactions by service time interval.

The following tables explain the prompts you can select when you generate the report, and the metrics and attributes that are represented in the report:

Prompts for the Abandon Delay Report

Prompt	Description
Pre-set Date Filter	Choose from the convenient list of predefined rolling time ranges, spanning one day or more, over which to run the report.
Start Date	Choose the first day from which to gather report data.
End Date	Choose the last day from which to gather report data.
Queue Group	Optionally, select a queue group on which to report.
Queue	Optionally, select a queue on which to report.
Media Type	Optionally, select the type of media to include in the report—for example, VOICE, EMAIL, and CHAT.
Interaction Type	Optionally, select the type of interaction to include in the report—for example, Inbound, Outbound, and Internal.
Tenant	For multi-tenant environments, optionally select the tenant(s) for which to include data in the report.

Attributes for the Abandon Delay Report

Attribute	Description
Tenant	This attribute enables data within the reporting interval to be organized by tenant.
Media Type	This attribute enables data to be organized by the interaction’s media type—for example, VOICE, EMAIL, and CHAT.
Time Range Key	This attribute enables the identification of time-range boundaries by tenant. These boundaries define the upper and lower limits for the service-time intervals that are used by the Speed of Accept and Abandon Delay reports.
Queue	This attribute enables data within the reporting interval to be organized by the name of the ACD queue, virtual queue, interaction queue, or workbin.
Interaction Type	This attribute enables data to be organized by the interaction’s type—for example, Inbound, Outbound, and Internal.
Day	This attribute enables data within the reporting interval to be organized by a particular day within a month and year. Day values are presented in YYYY-MM-DD format.

Metrics used in the Abandon Delay Report

Metric	Description
Abandoned Waiting ST1	The total number of times that interactions entered this queue and were subsequently abandoned prior to the first abandon threshold. If the first abandon threshold is not configured, this measure uses no limit as the upper boundary of the abandon interval. Abandon thresholds are defined within the [agg-gim-thld-QUEUE-ABN] section.
Abandoned Waiting ST2-ST9	The total number of times interactions that entered this queue and were subsequently abandoned within the time interval bounded by the corresponding abandon-in-queue thresholds. If the next lower abandon threshold is not configured, this measure returns 0. Abandon thresholds are defined within the [agg-gim-thld-QUEUE-ABN] section.
Abandoned Waiting ST10	The total number of times that interactions entered this queue and were subsequently abandoned beyond the ninth abandon threshold. If the ninth abandon threshold is not configured, this measure returns 0. Abandon thresholds are defined within the [agg-gim-thld-QUEUE-ABN] section.
% Abandoned Waiting ST1	The percentage of interactions that entered this queue and were subsequently abandoned prior to the first abandon-in-queue threshold, relative to all interactions that entered this queue and were abandoned. This measure excludes interactions that were abandoned after distribution, but it includes short-abandoned interactions.
% Abandoned Waiting ST2 - ST9	The percentage of interactions that entered this queue and were subsequently abandoned within the interval bounded by the corresponding abandon-in-queue thresholds, relative to all interactions that entered this queue and were abandoned. This measure excludes interactions that were abandoned after distribution from the queue, but it includes short-abandoned interactions if they fall within the aforementioned abandon thresholds.
% Abandoned Waiting ST10	The percentage of interactions that entered this queue and were subsequently abandoned beyond the ninth abandon-in-queue threshold, relative to all interactions that entered this queue and were abandoned. This measure excludes interactions that were abandoned after distribution, but it includes short-abandoned interactions if they fall beyond the ninth abandon threshold.
