Custom Reports allow you to understand how much time your agents spent working on Tickets, General Tasks, or were Untracked. You can analyze the performance of your workforce over a selected period of time and view data based on a wide range of criteria including agents, organizations, and Zendesk tags, to name a few.
With appropriate Agent Permissions you will be able to:
- Run a Custom Report
- Read a Custom Report
- Export a Custom Report
- Schedule a Custom Report to be sent to an email
You can load a previously saved report or establish the criteria for a new one. You will be able to filter it by Reporting Period, Ticket Status, and Agent or Group of Agents (you can include or exclude Zendesk Tags).
To run a Custom Report please follow these steps:
- Go to Reports
on the top navigation bar and select Custom Report. - Select your preferred Parameters:
- Reporting Period for your report.
- If you click on Show Advanced Options, you will be able to specify the Daily Time, which will allow you to filter the report for the specific time of day you would like it to show.

After you run the report, you will see a Pie Chart. It represents the first Group By selection you chose when filtering 
.
When you scroll down you can expand any entry to see the agents and the tickets your agents were working on. If you click on the ticket, it will open in Zendesk.
