Objective
Create custom metrics in Analytics for Contact Center.
Applies To
- Analytics for Contact Center
Procedure
You can configure custom metrics for queues, as well as agent performance widgets. Basic validations prevent you from adding unsupported metrics. Once you define a custom metric, add it to the desired dashboard widgets.
Example 1: Let’s say you want to know the number of successful calls in your queue; those that entered the queue and were not abandoned. Simply create a custom metric by subtracting the abandoned calls from the number of calls that entered a queue.
Successful calls = Entered - Abandoned
Example 2: To determine the total number of calls handled within a queue, subtract the calls that were diverted from the queue to another queue (or another phone number) from the calls that entered the queue.
Total Calls Handled = Entered - Diverted
To configure custom metrics:
- In the top-right corner, click
