Contacts Report
Interaction - The highest level component that comprises the full activity of a communication with a contact. It can include multiple contacts and each contact includes several, more granular, elements that are called segments.
Contact - A conversation can have multiple contacts depending on the outcome of the initial contact. Examples of situations that will trigger a new contact include: transfer; fallback to a different ring group. Contacts are the main reporting element for Supervisors and the one that will be used for staffing purposes (by monitoring queue SLA and queue AHT).
Answered contacts - inbound contacts that reached an agent and were answered.
Missed contacts - implies that the contact went through the flow, and reached a hang-up (it may or may not ring an agent but in both cases, it will be missed since there was no action by the contact person to leave the queue) or in case that after the assignment the Contact is terminated by a flow rule. Another situation is if a call hits the Maximum Time Out and is disconnected by the system or if the contact reaches the maximum queue time and goes to the next non-assignment component (examples: Standard IVR, Play Audio, etc) and the customer disconnects the contact at that moment. In this situation, the outcome/type of the contact will also be "missed".
Abandoned contacts - inbound contacts where the contact person finishes/disconnects the contact before reaching an agent (includes abandoned while ringing the agent). It is considered abandoned even if it rang an agent before. There was an explicit action by the caller to leave the queue.
Short abandoned contacts - inbound contacts disconnected by the contact person within the threshold defined in the system for short abandons.
Voicemails - The Assign & Dial lead to a voicemail component.
Connected contacts - outbound contacts where the connection was successful and the agent reached the contact person.
Not connected contacts - outbound contacts where the connection with the contact person was not successful ending in the contact being disconnected.
The Conference Contacts report provides limited visibility into actions related to conference calls during an interaction. When a guest is added to a call, it is often seen as a consultation without placing the original contact on hold.
To distinguish these "Add Guest" actions from traditional Consultations (where the contact is put on hold), the report identifies them with a Transfer In Type of "Guest" instead of "Warm."
When the owner of a conference call leaves, the call ownership is transferred to another contact. In this case, the Transfer Out Type for the departing contact and the Transfer In Type for the new owner are set to "Host".
| Name | Description | Type | Format | Section | Field | Metrics Calculation |
