VCC Statistic Definitions

What is the difference between Agent Statistics and Interaction Statistics?

Agent Statistics contain call legs offered to different agents. For example, an Agent Statistics report can show calls answered by skills for each agent.

Interaction Statistics contain unique calls coming into the ACD. For example, a Interaction Statistics report can show calls answered, calls missed, calls offered, and calls transferred.

Note: Customers should not match Agent Statistics and Interaction Statistics report.

Agent Statistics defined

Agent reports include Agent Activity and Agent Statistics reports to show data from the agent's perspective.

  • Agent Activity reports display a summary of the call activity for agents over a specified time period. You can view the average and maximum time information for calls as well as the individual call detail records.
  • Agent Statistics reports display a summary of the call statistics for the agents over a specified time period.You can view the average and maximum time information for calls or group the data by attributes, such as date or skill. Also, all Interaction Statistics reports include a link to Call Recording.

What are common Agent report attributes?

The VCC Agent report attributes are the time, interval, or other criteria, such as skill, for which you want to aggregate data.

What are common Interaction report metrics?

Important
The metric definitions below are Historical Definitions unless otherwise noted.

Abandoned Rate (ABA%)

Percentage of calls abandoned by the caller while calls are waiting in queue or ringing, but not while on hold. This metric does not include any answered calls.

ABA % = (Customer Abandoned Calls / Calls Offered ) * 100

Customer Abandoned Calls / Abandoned Calls while Ringing

Historical Definition

The count of unique calls that the caller abandoned while waiting in the queue (Customer Abandoned) or while the agent’s phone was ringing (Abandoned Calls while ringing).

They both are abandoned by the customer. If total abandoned calls by customers (while waiting in queue or ringing) needs to be calculated, we need to add these metrics.

Dashboard Definition

The total number of inbound calls abandoned within the period shown (60 minutes or 24 hours).

The dashboard Queue widget expands to provide a trending graph showing total calls answered over either 60 minutes or 24 hours.

This is not used for Skills.

Abandoned Time

The time taken by the caller to abandon a call while the call is waiting in the queue or ringing.

Abandoned Time = (Wait Time + Ring Time) for only those calls which were abandoned by the caller.

Avg Abandoned Time

Average time taken by callers to abandon a call.

Average Abandoned Time = Abandoned Time / (Customer Abandoned Calls + Abandoned Calls while Ringing)

Abandoned Time = (Wait Time + Ring Time) for calls abandoned by callers

Avg Consult Time

Average time duration for which an agent talked to another agent while the caller was on hold. This time does not include the time in conference or talk time when a call is transferred to another agent.

Average Consult Time = Consult Time / Consult Calls

Consult Time = Time for which an agent talked to another agent while the caller was on hold.

Consult Calls = Unique number of calls where any agent initiated a consult anytime during the call.

Avg Diverted Time

Average time taken for calls to be diverted out by the ACD.

Diverted Time / Diverted Calls

Avg Handle Time for Inbound Calls

Used in the Interaction Statistics reports (day/hour/15 mins/enhanced), this metric represents the average time, during the specified time period, that agents spent handling inbound calls.

The metric is calculated based on the sum of Consult Time, Hold Time, customer Talk Time, and Wrap-up Time, and is calculated as follows: Average Handle Time for Inbound Calls = Handle Time for Inbound Calls / Calls Answered for Inbound

The average time spent by agents to handle inbound calls during a specific time period. This metric includes the sum of time spent by all agents during talking, hold, consultation, conference, and wrap-up.

Average Handle Time for Inbound Calls = Handle Time for Inbound Calls / Calls Answered for Inbound where Handle Time for Inbound Calls = Talk Time for Inbound Calls + Hold Time for Inbound Calls + Wrap-up Time for Inbound Calls

Important
  • Talk Time is the time spent by callers talking to agents directly or in conference.
  • Hold Time is the time spent by callers on hold, either through manual hold by agents or automatic hold during consultation between two agents.
  • Handle Time does not include Wait Time.
  • Wrap-up Time includes time spent during wrap up by all agents who handled a specific call.

Avg Handle Time for Outbound Calls

Used in the Interaction Statistics reports (day/hour/15 mins/enhanced), this metric represents the average time, during the specified time period, that agents spent handling outbound calls.

The metric is calculated based on the sum of Consult Time, Hold Time, customer Talk Time, and Wrap-up Time, and is calculated as follows: Average Handle Time for Outbound Calls = Handle Time for Outbound Calls / Calls Answered for Outbound

The average time spent by agents to handle outbound calls during a specific time period. This metric includes the sum of time spent by all agents during talking, hold, consultation, conference, and wrap-up.

Average Handle Time for Outbound = Handle Time for Outbound / Calls Answered for Outbound Where, Handle Time for Outbound = Talk Time for Outbound + Hold Time for Outbound + Wrap-up Time for Outbound

Important
  • Talk Time is the time spent by callers talking to agents directly or in conference.
  • Hold Time is the time spent by callers on hold, either through manual hold by agents or automatic hold during consultation between two agents.
  • Handle Time does not include Wait Time.
  • Wrap-up Time includes time spent during wrap up by all agents who handled a specific call.

Average Handling Time

Dashboard Reports

The average time an agent has taken to handle a call for the day. Agent activities for this state include: Consult Call, Internal Call, Outbound Call, Inbound Call, After Call Work, Inbound Call On Hold, and Outbound Call On Hold. This is used within the Skill Widget.

Avg Hold Time

The average time for which agents manually put callers on hold during a specific time period.

Avg Hold Time = Hold Time / Calls Answered

Important
  • Does not include the automatic hold caller is put on when agent consults with another agent.
  • Does not include the time caller waits in queue.

Avg Speed Answer

Average amount of time that it takes for a call to be answered by an agent during a specific time period.

Avg Speed of Answer = Speed of Answer / Answered Calls

Avg Talk Time

Average amount of time spent by a caller speaking to an agent.

Avg Talk Time = Talk Time / Calls Answered

Where, Talk Time is the amount of time spent by a caller speaking to an agent

Important
  • Does not include Wait Time in queue and Ring Time
  • Does not include manual hold (agent pressing hold button to put caller on hold)
  • Does not include automatic hold (when agent is consulting with another agent)
  • Time is only counted once if multiple agents speak to the caller in a conference

Avg Time to Dequeue

Average amount of time spend by a dequeued call waiting before its picked up another agent from a different skill.

Wait Time for Dequeued Calls / Dequeued Calls

Avg Wait Time

Average amount of time a call waits in the queue.

Wait Time / Calls Offered

Wait time is the time spent by a caller waiting in queue for one or more agents.

Avg Wrap-Up Time

Average amount of time taken by all agents to wrap up a call. This metric adds up the time spent by all agents involved on that call; so, if two agents speak to the caller in a conference call or separately, this metric includes the wrap-up times of both agents.

Wrap-up Time / Calls Answered

Answered Calls

Historical Definition

Unique count of calls answered by at least one agent.

Important
  • If same call is answered by more than one agent, it is still counted as 1.
  • If same call is first missed and then answered by another agent, it is still counted as an answered call.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Answered Calls in the above scenario is "3"

Dashboard Definition

CXA 155 DB AnsCalls.png

The total number of Inbound calls answered within the period shown (60 minutes or 24 hours).

The dashboard Queue widget expands to provide a trending graph showing total calls answered over either 60 minutes or 24 hours.

(Not used for Skills)

Calls Offered

Count of all calls that arrived at the contact center for a given skill. If a call was transferred from Skill A to Skill B, then Calls Offered is 1 for Skill A and 1 for Skill B. If a call arrived for Skill A and Agent A transferred the call to Agent B, Calls Offered for Skill A is still counted as 1.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Calls Offered in the above scenario is "4" (Call 1, Call 2, Call 3, and Call 4).

Calls Answered within Service Level

Number of calls that are answered within the target Speed of Answer.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios with Target Service Level of 15 seconds:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Calls Answered within Service Level in the above scenario is "1" (which is Call 2).

Calls Answered-Inbound

The inbound calls answered by agents. If a call is answered by the agent anytime during the call cycle, then it is considered an answered call—for example, if the first agent misses the call and the second agent picks up the call, it is considered an answered/completed call.

A call falls under the Answered Call category if, at any time during the call, it is picked up by an agent.

Calls Answered-Outbound

The outbound calls placed by agents that are answered by the agent. If the end called party doesn't pick the phone, those calls are still counted as answered call since that call was first answered by the agent.

Calls Offered

Calls offered metric by outbound interaction type—In interaction statistics, the calls offered metric by outbound interaction type does not include callback calls initiated by the agent or system.

For example, consider this callback scenario :

  1. Caller requested for callback call and then hung up
  2. Once the agents are available, in the first attempt, the first outbound callback call to the customer was initiated and the customer did not accept the outbound call.
  3. In the second attempt, the second outbound callback call to the customer was initiated and the customer didn't accept the outbound call.
  4. In the third attempt, the third outbound callback call to the customer was initiated and the customer accepted the outbound call.

In this scenario:

  • Calls offered for inbound interaction type is 1.
  • Calls offered for outbound interaction type is 0.
  • Calls answered for inbound interaction type is 0.
  • Calls answered for outbound interaction type is 1.

Chat Time

Time duration of the interaction leg.

Consult Time

Time duration for which an agent talked to another agent while the caller was put on hold. This time does not include the time in conference or talk time when a call is transferred to another agent.

Current Avg Wait Time

Dashboard Definition

CXA 155 DB CurAvgWait.png

Day, Hour, 15 Min

The following statistics are available:

  • Accepted
  • Revoked
  • Missed
  • Customer Abandoned
  • Requested Skill
  • Handle Time
  • Wait Time


Dequeued Calls

Total number of inbound calls which were transferred from the given skill to another skill.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Dequeued Calls in the above scenario is "4" (Call 2, Call 3, and Call 4 counted twice).

Diverted Calls

Total number of calls that are diverted out by the ACD. Calls are diverted out of ACD in the following scenarios:

  • Caller waited in queue for the maximum Wait Time defined in the ACD.
  • No agents were checked in when the call was sent to the ACD.
  • Caller pressed an exit command like ‘0’ while waiting in queue.

Diverted Time

The time it takes for calls to be diverted out by the ACD. Calls are diverted out of ACD in the following scenarios:

  • Caller waited in queue for the maximum Wait Time defined in the ACD.
  • No agents were checked in when the call was sent to the ACD.
  • Caller pressed an exit command like ‘0’ while waiting in queue.

Diverted time is the sum of wait times for calls that end up getting diverted out of the ACD.

Handle Time

The total time spent by agents to handle inbound/outbound calls during a specific time period. The metric represents the sum of Consult Time, Hold Time, customer Talk Time, and Wrap-up Time.

Time spent by agents to handle a call. This time does not include Wait Time. It does include the sum of times spent by multiple agents during talking, hold, consultation, conference, and wrap-up.

CXA 155 QHandleTime.pngThe amount of time spent by all agents to handle a call.
  • Wait time is not included.
  • If multiple agents handle a call, the time spent by each agent is added to the handle time.

Assuming each cell height being 5 seconds, Handle Time in the above scenario is "35 Seconds".

Handle Time for Inbound Calls

The time spent by the resources to handle an inbound call. This time does not include the Wait Time, but does include the sum of times spent by multiple agents during a consultation, conference, and after-call-work (ACW).

Handle Time for Outbound Calls

The time spent by the resources to handle an outbound call. This time does not include the Wait Time, but does include the sum of times spent by multiple agents during a consultation, conference, and after-call-work (ACW).

Hold Time

CXA 155 QHoldTime.png Time for which agent puts the caller on hold.
  • This includes both automatic and manual hold time.
  • This doesn't include wait time in the queue or automatic hold when an agent tries to consult another agent.

Assuming each cell height is 5 seconds, Hold Time in the above scenario is "10 Seconds".

Inbound Calls Offered

Count of all the inbound calls that came to the call center for a given skill. If a call is transferred from Skill A to Skill B then the value of Inbound Calls Offered is 1 for Skill A and 1 for Skill B. If a call comes for Skill A and Agent A transfers the call to Agent B, Inbound Calls Offered is still counted as 1.

Important
If an agent makes an outbound call or an internal call to another agent, then that call is not counted.

Interaction ID

The unique number for a chat interaction.

Interaction Resource ID

The number corresponding to each leg of the a given chat interaction.

Longest Idle

The agent that has been in the Ready state the longest and has not received a call. This is used within the Skill Widget.

Longest Wait

Longest time for which a call waited in the queue in a given time period.

Important
Does not include Ring Time.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios within a given time period:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Longest Wait in the above scenario is "25 Seconds" (Call 3).

Media Type

The number of interactions offered to the VCC divided by Media Type (voice, chat, or email) and by direction (inbound or outbound).

Missed Calls

Count of unique calls which were not answered by at least one agent.

  • If agent rejects the call, it is counted as a missed call.
  • If same call is missed twice, it is still counted as one missed call.
  • If caller hangs up while agent's phone is ringing, it is not counted as a missed call.
  • Redirected on No Answer is same as a missed call.
  • If a call is missed by the first agent and then answered by a second agent, it is marked as both an Answered Call as well as a Missed Call.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios within a given time period:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Missed Calls in the above scenario is "2" (Call 1 and Call 2 include missed call events).

This metric is used also within the Skill Widget.

Outcome Reason

The Enhanced Interaction Activity reports additionally provide an Outcome Reason, which enables you to distinguish between Missed (Revoked) and Rejected interaction legs. Both are tagged as Redirected in the Outcome statistic.

Revoked Calls

The unique number of calls where the initial consult invitation by an agent was revoked when the resource did not accept the invitation before the handling timeout.

Service Level (SL%)

The 'service level %' metric excludes both internal and outbound calls while calculating the 'SL%' metric.

Historical Definition

The percentage of calls that were answered within the target Speed of Answer.

SL% = (Calls Answered within SL / Calls Offered for Inbound) * 100

Dashboard Definition

CXA 155 DB SerLev.png

The service level is customer-defined within the Contact Center Settings section of the VCC Dashboard.

The service level is used also within the Skill Widget.

Important
If a call is redirected from the first agent, but still answered by the second agent within the SL, then the service level is counted as a no.

Speed of Answer

CXA 155 QSpeedOfAnswer.png

Time at which call enters queue until the time call is answered by the first available agent.

Speed of Answer = Sum of all (Wait Time + Ring Time) until the call is answered by the first available agent.

If the call is missed by the first agent but answered by the second agent, then the Ring Time for the second agent is also included.

Assuming each cell is 5 seconds, the Speed of Answer in the above scenario is "20 Seconds".

Example

  1. An inbound call waits in the queue for 5 seconds and is routed to Agent-1 with a ring time of 10 seconds. Agent-1 does not accept the call.
  2. . The call goes back into the queue for 5 seconds more and is routed to Agent-2 with ring time of 15 seconds. Agent-2 accepts the call and talks with the customer for 1 minute.

In this call scenario, the speed of answer is Wait Time + Ring Time for Agent-1 + Wait Time + Ring Time for Agent-2.

Speed of Answer = 5 +10 + 5 + 15 = 35 seconds

Talk Time

CXA 155 QTalkTime.png

Caller talk time is the amount of time the caller spends speaking to agents.

Not included:

  • Ring time
  • Wait time in the queue
  • Manual hold—Agent manually places a caller on hold by pressing the hold button
  • Automatic hold—If a caller is put on automatic hold (for example, when an agent tries to consult with another agent).

If multiple agents speak to a caller in a single conference, the time is counted only once.

Assuming each cell height is 5 seconds, Talk Time in the above scenario is "10 Seconds".

Transferred Calls

Unique number of calls which were transferred from one agent to another agent, skill, or external number.

  • If a call is transferred multiple times, it is still counted as one Transferred Call.
  • If a call includes consult and conference, it is still counted as one Transferred Call.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Transferred Calls in the above scenario is "3" (Call 2, Call 3, Call 4).

Wait Time

The time duration for which a caller waits in the queue. All the wait times are added together if a call is transferred from one queue to another.

The Wait Time for callback initiated calls is the time between when callback call is queued as a callback until the time the customer answers the callback call.

Call scenario:

  1. A caller waits in the queue for 5 minutes, requests a callback call, and then hangs up.
  2. After two minutes, agents become available, the first callback call is initiated to the customer, and the customer does not accept the call.
  3. Five minutes after the first callback attempt, the second outbound callback call is initiated and the customer does not accept the callback call.
  4. One minute after the second callback attempt, a third outbound callback call is initiated and the customer accepts the outbound call.

In this scenario:

  • The wait time for the inbound call is 5 minutes.
  • The wait time for the callback successful attempt is 1 minute.

Wait Time to Dequeue Calls

Time it takes for an agent to answer a call for transferred skill.

Wait Time for Dequeued Calls = (Wait time + Ring Time) for calls that were dequeued until an agent picks up the call.

Wrap-up Time

CXA 155 QWrapUpTime.png

Time spent by agents wrapping up the call after call is disconnected.

  • Wrap-up time is different from ACW time as wrap-up time is only call-related.
  • Wrap-up time includes time spent in wrap-up by all agents involved in the call.

Assuming each cell height is 5 seconds, Wrap-up Time in the above scenario is "10 Seconds".

What are common Agent report metrics?

Important
The metric definitions below are Historical Definitions unless otherwise noted.

ACW Duration

Historical Definition

The total time spent by agents in wrap-up time or the After Call Work (ACW) state. ACW Time is includes both call related ACW (wrap-up time ) as well offline work (non-call related ACW).

Dashboard Definition

The total time spent in a day by agents in wrap-up time or the After Call Work (ACW) state. ACW Time is includes both call related ACW (wrap-up time ) as well offline work (non-call related ACW).

Agent Calls

Count of all the inbound, outbound and Internal calls presented to or made by the agents.

  • If a call is abandoned while ringing, it is not included in the agent calls.
  • If same call circles back to same agent twice (another agent transfers the call back to first agent), it is counted twice.
  • If an agent makes an internal call to another agent, that call is counted as 1 on agent calls metrics.
  • If a call is presented to an agent who missed that call, it is still counted in this metrics.
  • If Agent 1 is presented a call who in turn did a consult/conference/transfer to Agent 2, 'agent calls' metrics will show 1 call for Agent 1 and 1 call for Agent 2.

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

This data includes the time spent over multiple login sessions.

Agent Talk Time

CXA 155 ATalkTime.png

Time spent by agent over the phone. Agent talk time is different from Caller Talk time and is equal to time an agent picks up the call until the time agent hangs up.

  • The following are not included in Talk Time:
    • Wait time in the queue as well as ring time.
    • Manual hold (agent presses hold button to put caller on hold).
    • Time spent in ACW or Wrap Up state.
  • Automatic hold (agent tries to consult with another agent) is included in talk time.

Assuming each cell height is 5 seconds, Agent Talk Time for Agent 1 is "15 Seconds' and for Agent 2 is "10 Seconds"

Agent Utilization

CXA 155 AAgentUtilization.pngCXA 155 AAgentUtilizationkey.png

Amount of time spent by agents on productive work out of total login Time.

% utilization = Productive Time / Login Time

Where, Productive Time = (Busy Time + ACW Time)

and Login Time = (Ready Time + Not Ready Time + Busy Time + ACW Time)

In above case, assuming each cell height being 5 seconds, Agent 1 will have - Ready Time = 10 seconds, Not Ready Time = 5 seconds, Busy Time = 15 seconds, ACW Time = 5 seconds

Agent Utilization without ACW Time

The Agent Utilization is calculated as (Work Time-ACW Time)/Session Time * 100. The Work Time includes the time spent by agents on a call (Agent Talk Time Hold Time) as well as the ACW Time (After Call Work). The Session Time is the time interval selected by the user.

Avg Handle Time for Outbound Calls

Handle Time for outbound calls / outbound Calls

The average time spent by the resources to handle an outbound call. This time does not include the Wait Time; however, it does include the sum of times spent by multiple agents during a consultation, conference, and after-call-work (ACW).

Avg Hold Time

Total Hold time / Calls answered by Agents

Avg Speed Answer

Average amount of time that it takes for a call to be answered by an agent during a specific time period.

Sum of speed of answer for all answered calls / Calls Answered

Avg Wrap-Up Time

Wrapup Time/ Calls Answered

Wrap-up time is the time spent by agents wrapping up the call after call is disconnected.

  • Wrap-up time is only call related. It doesn't include the time spent by agents in ACW state for some offline work
  • If more than one agent handles a call, wrap-up time of all agents involved are added up

Busy Duration

The total time spent by agents talking to callers. This time includes time spend by the agents talking to callers as well as hold time.

Busy Time = Agent Talk Time + Agent Hold Time

- Consult Time is included in Agent Talk Time - Agent Hold Time is the time agents put the caller on manual hold (don't include automatic hold during consult)

Caller Hold Count by Agent

The number of times agents put callers on manual hold. It is simply the count of number of times an agent put the caller on manual hold.

Calls Answered by Agents

Count of calls answered by agents.

  • If same call is presented twice to the same agent, it is counted as 2
  • If Agent 1 answered a call who in turn did a consult/conference/transfer to Agent 2, 'calls answered by agent' metrics will show 1 call for Agent 1 and 1 call for Agent 2.
  • If outbound call is answered by agent but not by called party, it's still counted as answered call

For example, let's assume these 4 different call scenarios:

CXA 155 CallFlow.png

Answered Calls for Skill A Agent 1 is "2" and for Skill B Agent 1 is "3"

Calls Answered-Inbound

Historical Definition
