The following tables provide definitions for all the metrics available in the queue and agent performance widgets.

Note:

Contact Center Analytics reports take into consideration the ongoing interactions in computing the metrics for each row in order to offer a better view of what happened in the Contact Center. For example, an interaction that entered the queue in the previous time interval and was not accepted or abandoned or diverted (is  waiting in queue) is reflected in the Entered metric for the current interval as well.

SLA %

Computed

 

%

Service Level Agreement is defined as a percentage of "number of interactions accepted by agents before the SLA waiting time threshold is reached" divided by the "number of interactions that entered the queue" multiplied by 100.

SLA % = Accepted in SLA / (Entered - Short Abandoned - (Ongoing Interactions < SLA Threshold Time)) * 100
Glossary:

  • Accepted in SLA: The total number of interactions answered by all agents under the SLA Threshold Time

  • Short Abandoned: The number of interactions that resulted in abandonment and are under the short abandonment threshold

    Note: The short abandonment threshold time is set to 5 seconds by default. Currently, this cannot be altered.

  • Ongoing Interactions < SLA Time Threshold: All ongoing interactions that did not yet exceed the SLA Threshold Time
