Leaderboard panel
What is a leaderboard panel?
The leaderboard panel allows you to display your live call logging data organised in columns placed next to each other, in order to provide a visual summary of any call information you wish to monitor. The content of each column is determined solely by your selection and the leaderboard can show any combination of column types. The fonts and background of the panel are also customisable.
 | The information shown in the leaderboard is updated every time a call finishes and has been logged by the system. |
The example below shows a leaderboard panel containing the following columns: the total number of calls, inbound, outbound, lost calls, duration of inbound, duration of outbound, total duration of calls and is ordered by total number of calls per user:

The Title tab allows you to configure the properties of the panel title and of the leaderboard headers:

Content
The Content tab allows you to select the type of information you want to display in your leaderboard. Each column can comprise different call information (duration, response time, etc.), for different call types (inbound, outbound, etc.) and for different entities (sites, groups, users). For example, one column can show statistics for the total number of inbound calls on a daily basis, while in a different column you can display the same information, but for a different user group and on a weekly basis.
Perform the following steps to add a column to your leaderboard panel:
Select a stats point
| To populate a leaderboard with call logging information, you first need to add a stats point object in the Directory to collect data for the site, group or user you want the leaderboard to display. |
To select the relevant stats point for your leaderboard, click on the button, as shown below:
A new window will open, allowing you to drill-down to the site or group level in the Directory, where the stats point object you want to add resides. To select the stats point, click on the 
icon alongside it.
| The selected stats point will automatically feed all columns in the leaderboard, but each individual column can be set afterwards to use a different stats point. |
Select a call type
To select the type of call you want to display in this column, click on the Call type drop-down list and choose from the available options, as shown below:
Select column information

Metrics
The Metrics tab allows you to define the size of the leaderboard panel and the parameters of the page.

Paging
If you want to use automatic paging, select the box provided; alternatively, enter the number of rows you want the leaderboard to show per page, or select Show the first page only.
