Hourly Chat Reports

There are a few reports that we can wait for a while, but then there are a few reports we need hourly. That is why we have released new reports that you can avail hourly about monitoring chats and agents.

The goal of introducing these reports is to reduce the reporting downtime.

How are Hourly Chat Reports different from existing reports?

These newly introduced reports offer a distinct set of insights compared to our existing ones. Moreover, they seamlessly integrate into clients’ individual data analytics systems, ensuring their dashboards remain functional and dynamic. These reports are designed to provide information at two levels: 

  • The chat level 

Allowing for a granular understanding of customer interactions.

The email address of the agents

ChatsAssigned

It is the total number of chats assigned to the agent for the duration of the report.

Calculations in the Report

For calculating Chat Counts

Various conversation scenarios are tracked at the backend, and when specific events within these scenarios are triggered, they are assigned a value of 1 in the corresponding KPI columns. For instance, in the conversation scenario depicted below, each event that occurs during the conversation is recorded in the rows, and the associated KPIs are indicated in the columns. When an event such as chat start or bot reply occurs, the corresponding column is marked, and these values are aggregated in the final calculation.

For Calculating Different Chat Duration

Different conversation scenarios are monitored in the backend, and when a particular event takes place, a true value is assigned to the corresponding metric/KPI listed in the columns. The time duration between two consecutive true events represents the final value for that specific KPI. 

For instance, consider the scenario shown below. In Scenario 1, a conversation begins at 12:00:00, resulting in true values assigned to the associated KPIs in the columns. Subsequently, when the bot responds at 12:01:00, a true value is assigned to the relevant KPI, such as FRT (First Response Time). The time elapsed between these two events determines the final value of the KPI. In this example, the FRT is 00:01:00.

Audit Trail

Audit trail reports will be available for the following scenarios:

  1. Report scheduled
  2. Report name changed
  3. Report deleted
