View more details about a skill group

To see the queues and related metrics for a skill group, click the + beside the skill group’s row. The queues and their data display under the skill group row.

Note: If None displays in the Queue column, then a skill group occurred without a queue.

None displayed in the Queue column of the None skill group represents non-ACD interactions. For example, if a user places a non-ACD call on hold, that call’s hold data displays in the None row under the None skill group.

For more information about a queue, click the queue name. The Queue Performance Detail view for that queue opens with skill group and language group filters active to represent the skill group from the Skills Performance view. You can also save and export the data shown in the Queue Performance Detail view with the skill and language group filters active.

Available columns

Your customizations determine which metric columns the view shows.

Available columns

Column	Description
Offer	The number of interactions routed into the queue for an agent to answer. Offered interactions are either answered, abandoned, or flow-out interactions.
Answer %	The percentage of offered interactions that an agent answered. Calculated by: (Answered / Offered) * 100
Answered (in Answered % column)	A measurement of the number of assigned ACD interactions answered by an agent in a given period. Answered increments when the agent is the first to connect to the interaction.
Abandon %	The percentage of offered interactions in which the customer disconnected before connecting with an agent. The abandon rate can identify queues that require extra staff to handle interactions in a timely manner. Calculated by: (Abandoned Count / Offered Count) * 100
Flow-out	Flow-outs are interactions that enter and leave a queue without getting answered by an agent and without getting disconnected. Flow-outs are an indication of customer service level and queue productivity. High numbers of flow-outs can indicate staffing issues or ineffective agents when used with high handle times (bullseye matching metrics). Flow-outs can include transfers to voicemail, callbacks, and any system-driven events such as in-queue flows that transfer to another queue or external party after a certain amount of time. Flow-outs can also occur if the caller opts to exit out of the queue and return to the IVR. Offered interactions are either flow-out, answered, or abandoned interactions.
ASA	The average amount of time an interaction waits in queue before an agent answers it. This metric does not include interactions that agents do not answer. ASA is directly associated with the service level and provides insight into the customer service your company provides. ASA is recorded in the interval in which the agent answered the interaction. Calculated by: Total Answered (tAnswered Sum) / Answered Count (tAnswered Count) Note: Raw values are provided in milliseconds.
Service Level %	Service level target is a contact center performance statistic expressed as “X percent of conversations answered in Y seconds.” For example, a goal of answering 80% of voice calls within 20 seconds provides a service level target of 80/20. You can set the service level target for each media type in a queue. Analytics uses this service level target to calculate whether you are within the service level % defined by your service level agreement (SLA). For more information about setting the service level target, see Create queues or Edit or delete queues. Note: In the skill group row, the Service Level target displays a -. To view individual queue service level target values for each queue, click the + to expand the row. The service level % is the percentage of interactions that meet your contact center's service level target. The formula to calculate the service level % is: Number of Conversations Answered within SLA The numerator is calculated by taking the total answered conversations and subtracting the conversations that were not answered within the SLA threshold. Calculated by: (Answered Count – SLA Violation Count) Total Number of Conversations The Service Level Options configuration determines the denominator. With all the options below unchecked, the denominator is the count of answered conversations. Include Flowouts in Calculation: Flowouts are conversations that leave a queue without abandoning and without an agent handling the interaction. Typical scenarios include a customer on a voice call accepting a callback or an in-queue call flow transferring the call to another queue/flow. With this option enabled, the total number of flowouts is included in the total number of conversations for the SLA calculation. Include Short Abandons in Calculation: Short abandons are abandons that happen within a specific time threshold. For more information, see Configure abandon intervals for the Abandon Intervals Metric view. When enabled, the SLA calculation makes no distinction between an abandon vs a short abandon. All abandons are considered in the formula. When disabled, the short abandons are subtracted from the abandon count in the denominator. Include Abandons in Calculation: Abandons are conversations where the waiting party disconnected without being answered or transferred. With this option enabled, the abandons are included in the total number of conversations. As the service level calculation depends on an organization’s configured options, the final formula to calculate the service level is: Note: With the Flowouts and Abandons enabled, the Flowouts and the Abandons are added into the denominator when calculating the service level. With the Short Abandons disabled, the Short Abandons are subtracted from the Abandons when calculating the service level.
Handle	The total number of ACD and non-ACD interactions that agents were involved in for the selected media type. Handle increments in the interval in which the interaction ends, after the agent completes any after call work and completes the interaction.
Avg Handle	The average amount of time agents spent handling interactions. This calculation includes talk time, hold time, and after-call work. For outbound calls it also includes dialing and contacting time. Calculated by: (cumulative talk time + cumulative hold time + cumulative after-call work + cumulative dialing time + cumulative contacting time) / Number of interactions handled Note: The interactions can span multiple time intervals. For example, a 45-minute call spans two 30-minute intervals. However, metrics are assigned a single timestamp and reported in the interval into which this timestamp falls. The timestamps are assigned based on when the metric calculation is complete. For instance, handle time will use the timestamp of after call work completion. In the example of a 45-minute call, the handle time falls in the second 30-minute interval because the handle time was calculated at the end of the call when ACW was submitted. In these views, the Avg Talk, Avg Hold, and Avg ACW columns do not equal the Avg Handle column because only some interactions include holds. This view calculates average handle column using cumulative counts rather than averages.
Avg Talk	The average number of seconds spent interacting on a media type. Calculated by: Total Talk time / Count of interactions with Talk time
Avg Hold	The average number of seconds that interactions were placed on hold. Calculated by: Total Hold Time / Count of interactions with holds
Avg ACW	The average amount of time agents spent completing after-call work. Calculated by: Total ACW / Interactions with ACW
Total Handle	The total amount of time agents spend on an interaction including time spent contacting, time spent dialing, talk time, hold time, and after call work.
Total Talk	The total amount of time spent interacting on all the conversations by the agent, within an interval. For example, in an interaction, where an agent accepts an interaction, talks to the customer for two minutes, places the customer on hold for one minute, and then talks to the customer again for two minutes, the Total Talk equals 4 minutes.
Total Hold	The cumulative hold time for all interactions.
Total ACW	The cumulative time spent in after-call work (ACW) on all interactions. After-call work is the work that an agent performs immediately following an interaction. Work may involve keying activity codes, updating customer databases, filling out forms, or initiating outbound contact. As a metric, it indicates the total time an agent takes to finish working on a call. If an agent must complete work before the agent can handle the next contact, then ACW is factored into the average handle time.
Hold	The number of interactions with holds.
Transfer	A measurement of the number of interactions an agent answered in one queue and then transferred. A transfer counts for the queue in which an agent answers the interaction. This measurement is calculated by the number of interactions blind transferred or consult transferred.
Transfer %	The number of transfers compared to the total number of interactions answered. Calculated by: (# of transfers / interactions answered) * 100
Max Abandon	The maximum time of an abandoned interaction for the selected interval.
Min Abandon	The minimum time of an abandoned interaction for the selected interval.
Max Wait	The maximum amount of time spent waiting in queue for the selected interval.
Min Wait	The minimum amount of time spent waiting in queue for the selected interval.
Max Talk	The maximum amount of time spent interacting for the selected interval.
Min Talk	The minimum amount of time spent interacting for the selected interval.
Max Hold	The maximum amount of time spent on hold for the selected interval.
Min Hold	The minimum amount of time spent on hold for the selected interval.
Max ACW	The maximum amount of time spent on after call work for the selected interval.
Min ACW	The minimum amount of time spent on after call work for the selected interval.
Over SLA	Number of interactions that were over the defined Service Level.
Met SLA	Number of interactions that met the defined service level.
Short Abandon	Number of interactions that were short abandoned.
Short Abandon %	Percent of interactions that were short abandoned.
Abandon – No Short	Number of abandons excluding the short abandons.
Abandon – No Short %	Percent of abandons excluding the short abandons.
Outbound Attempt	Attempted outbound interactions for Dialer campaigns.
Voicemail	Count of voicemails received.
Abandon	The number of times an end user abandoned an interaction in a queue. For example, the customer hangs up before an agent answers, or the system disconnects the interaction.
ACW	The number of times after-call work (ACW) was completed. After-call work is the work that an agent performs immediately following an interaction. Work may involve keying activity codes, updating customer databases, filling out forms, or initiating outbound contact. As a metric, it indicates the total time an agent takes to finish working on a call. If an agent must complete work before the agent can handle the next contact, then ACW is factored into the average handle time.
Max Handle	The maximum amount of time agents were involved in ACD and non-ACD interactions, including answered interactions, transfers, callbacks, and outbound calls.
Min Handle	The minimum amount of time agents were involved in ACD and non-ACD interactions, including answered interactions, transfers, callbacks, and outbound calls.
Talk	The number sessions where user(s) interacted during conversations. A session includes the point where the agent joins the conversation to the point where they disconnect.
Total Abandon	The total amount of time interactions are in queue waiting for an agent to answer them before customers abandoned the interactions.
Wait	The number of interactions that waited in the queue.
Avg Flow Out	The average amount of time an interaction spends in queue before it flows out. Calculated by: Total Flow Out Time / Count of interactions with flow-outs For more information, see Queues Performance Summary view.
Max Flow Out	The maximum amount of time an interaction spends in queue before it flows out. For more information, see Queues Performance Summary view.
Min Flow Out	The minimum amount of time an interaction spends in queue before it flows out. For more information, see Queues Performance Summary view.
