Introduction

Attendant group reports are used to assess the quality of service provided to customers calling through Listed Directory Numbers, as well as facilitate the management of the attendants so that they are neither under nor over-staffed.

Attendant Group reports provide hourly traffic measurements for attendant resources as a whole.

Uses

Track the following key metrics for your Attendants:

  • Total Calls
  • Answered Calls
  • Abandoned Calls
  • Calls Queued
  • Calls Held
  • Calls Held-Abandoned

FieldDescription
Total CallsAnswered calls + Abandoned calls
Answered CallsThe number of calls answered by all active attendants during the measurement hour. With Total Usage and Calls Answered, you can determine the Average Work Time (AWT), which is the time it takes anattendant to handle a call. Calls placed to individual attendant extensions or that route to an attendant via a hunt group do not increment the Calls Answered counter.
Abandoned CallsThe number of calls that ring an attendant groupand drop (the caller hangs up) before an attendant answers. Where applicable, this total includes calls abandoned from the attendant queue before answered. A call abandoned after placed on hold is not included in this measurement, because it is already added to the calls answered measurement.
Calls QueuedThe total number of calls placed in the attendant queue because no attendants are available. Calls remain in the queue:
  • Until an attendant becomesavailable and the call is connected.
  • Until the caller, while waiting inthe queue, abandons the call (hangs up) before an attendant is available.
  • The call covers to another point in a coverage path.
Calls Held
Calls Held-abandonedThe number of calls answered by the attendant group and subsequently placed on hold by the attendant group and are subsequently abandoned while on hold.
