The Call Scoring report provides a comprehensive analysis of previously scored calls, enabling you to quickly and easily asses the performance of your staff. TIM Plus gives you the option to create your own score cards and rate any call according to your evaluative criteria.

The scores can be based on any combination of questions with the following answers:

• Yes/No
• A range
• Multiple choice

All questions are summarised in a clear, easy-to-understand format and are shown separately, grouped into their respective categories.

An example of a scoring card can be seen below:

Running the report

On the Reports screen, select the Call scoring report from the left-hand pane and click the Select this report button.

A new window will appear, where you can set the parameters of your report.

Selecting the reporting period

For each report, you must specify a time span that covers the calls you want the report to include. This is known as the "reporting period".

There are several preset reporting periods available for selection, based on the standard Gregorian calendar. The following table describes how the start and end times are defined for each preset period:

In addition to the presets described above, it is possible to specify a custom reporting period by choosing Custom period from the  drop-down list and specifying your own  , ,  and  of the period you want to report on.

Once you have set the reporting period, click on the Next button to set additional report parameters and options, or select the Finish button to run the report immediately.

Selecting the reporting entity

The Reporting entity parameter allows you to select the part of your organisation whose calls the report should include, e.g. a site, a group or an individual user.

Site

To report on a particular site, select it from the drop-down list or select All sites .

Group

If a site has been selected, you are able to further limit the report's results by selecting a group from the drop-down list.

User

If both a site and group have been selected, you can further limit the report's results to include calls by a particular user by selecting it from the drop-down list.

Once you have selected the scope of your report, click on the Next button to set additional report parameters and options. To run the report immediately without doing so, click the Finish button.

Selecting the report filters

You can limit the results of your report by choosing one or more of the following filters:

Call type

This filter allows you to define the type of call you want to report on, in terms of where the call originated and where it was delivered, e.g. incoming, outgoing, internal, etc.  To report on all types of call, set this to All calls.

CLI

Calling Line Identification (CLI) is the telephone number of the remote caller in an incoming call scenario.

You can report on calls that originate from a specific CLI or those whose CLI matches a particular pattern of digits. For example, to report on all incoming calls from Tri-Line, you could enter 02072652600.

Dialled number

To filter calls to a specific dialled number, type it in the text box provided. The dialled number is defined as the number that is dialled (in the case of an outbound call), or the DDI number that the remote party dialled to reach a particular extension or group (in the case of an inbound call).

To filter calls to a specific area, a partial number can be entered (e.g. 0033 for calls to France).

You can use the ! symbol to explicitly exclude a dialled number from the report's results, and/or the  symbol as a wildcard in digit pattern matching.  For example, to exclude calls to Tri-Line, but include all others, you could use !020726526*). To report on more than one dialled number, use a comma to separate each entry.

Duration

To filter calls above or below a particular duration, enter the desired duration in seconds.

You can specify a duration range by using the  symbol; to specify limits, use the comparison operators, >, <, and  .

In the above example, the report will return only calls longer than 1800 seconds (30 minutes).

Selecting the report options

This section allows you to further narrow down your report results, by excluding certain types of calls or sorting the results in a particular manner. The filters are fairly self-explanatory. For example, if you would like to exclude weekend calls from the report, simply tick the option to exclude weekend calls. If you would like to ignore missed calls shorter than a specific duration, simply enter the duration in the box.

Exclude weekends

If you would like to exclude weekend calls from the search results, simply select the tick-box to exclude weekend calls.

Exclude transfers

Select this option if you would like to exclude transfers from the search results. For example if you want to see only how well calls were answered when first presented, you would choose to exclude transfers.

Hide unused

This option gives you the option of excluding unused extensions from the results shown. To exclude unused extension, simply select select the tickbox, as shown below:

Creating the report

When you have chosen a reporting period, and are happy with your selections, you have two options:

• run the report now
• schedule the report for future delivery

If you click on the Run now button, the report will run instantly in your chosen format.

If you want to schedule the report to run at a later time, follow the instruction given in the Schedule a report section.

The report's results

When selecting WEB as the output format, this report will appear as below. To view details of any filters or selection parameters used in creating this report, simply click on About this report on the top-right corner of the page. The WEB format allows for complete flexibility when viewing any report. All headers are clickable, allowing you to re-arrange the report layout in seconds, to sort the calls in ascending or decending order based on the header clicked.

As with all reports, the header of the report includes:

• the report title
• the date and time of the report
• the name of the report, if applicable

The results of the call scoring report will vary depending on the type of questions used to create your scorecards.

Yes/No answers will be shown as two bars with a % allocated against the Yes/No answers.

Range answers will show the Minimum and Maximum scores as well as the average score.

Multiple choice scores will show the % allocated to each answer.

All scores will show the total number of scores the report is based on so you can put the answers into context.
