Summary Report tips

Here are some helpful tips for working with Tymeshift's Summary Report.

• Filter by Channels
• Filter by Organization
• Averages Calculation
• Schedule Adherence metric visibility
• Data in # and %
• Timesheet details

Filter by Channels

The Channels filter shows the source where the ticket was created. You can use this option to filter the results so that it shows only tickets created through specific Zendesk channels. Check out this Zendesk Help Center article for a description of each channel.

Note: if you are using Zendesk Talk, select Phone Call. If you are using a Zendesk CTI partner, select applicable CTI options.

Filter by Organization

By default, Tymeshift will not show organizations in your reports. However, if you would like to enable organizations, please reach out to our Support Team.

Note: the organizations filter takes into consideration organizations you have set up inside of Zendesk. If your Zendesk account doesn’t have any organizations, then your Tymeshift Summary Report will not show that filtering under Parameters.

Averages Calculation

Averages are calculated based on the totals within the period you selected.

Let's report on Occupancy Rate over 3 days as an example:

Monday: 6 hrs Productive Time / 8 hrs Working Time = 75% Occupancy Rate
Tuesday: 5 hrs Productive Time / 8 hrs Working Time = 62.5% Occupancy Rate
Wednesday: 2 hrs Productive Time / 4 hrs Working Time = 50% Occupancy Rate

When you run a report for Monday through Wednesday, the Occupancy Rate for those 3 days will be:
13 hrs Productive Time / 20 hrs Working Time = 65% Occupancy Rate 

The alternate way to calculate the average would be to add up the Occupancy Rates over the 3 days (75 + 62.5 + 50) and then divide it by 3. This would result in an average Occupancy Rate of 62.5%. If you'd prefer to use this method, we recommend exporting the data in the Summary Report and calculating it using your own internal reporting.  

Schedule Adherence metric visibility

Whether or not Schedule Adherence is visible in the Metric tab changes depending on which filter you use in the Grouping section. It is visible in Rate metrics when the first Grouping is set to Agent or Group and accordingly, the second Grouping can be set to Group or Agent.

Data in # and %

By default, the time spent on Channels and General Tasks are displayed in numbers. By hovering over the time, you can see the percentage it represents when compared to the total time as illustrated below. 

Timesheet details

For some metrics, if you click on the total number, more details about the Timesheets will pop up, including the ticket number. If you click on a specific ticket number, it will bring you to that ticket in Zendesk. 

This feature is available for the following metrics: 

• Time Metric: all except AHT and Average Solved Ticket Time
• Point Metric:
  • Tickets Touched
  • Tickets Solved per hour
  • Tickets Solved per hour (WT)
  • Tickets Received
  • Unattended Tickets
  • Unassigned Unattended Tickets
  • Ticket Created
  • Ticket Backlog
