General Call Traffic Report

Daily management report comparing inbound and outbound call volumes and talk times with the number of users logged in by role

Written by Mustafa Eroğlu

The General Call Traffic Report is a high-level management report that lets you comprehensively analyze your call center's daily performance, call volumes, and staff login status.

Purpose

The primary purpose of this report is to give operations managers the answers to the questions "How much traffic did we handle?" and "How many people were in the system to handle this traffic?" on a single screen, on a daily basis. It supports capacity and efficiency analysis by comparing inbound and outbound call traffic with the number of users who logged into the system, by date.

Features

Unlike detailed call lists, this report presents the data as daily summaries and offers the following capabilities:

  • Hybrid view: Displays both inbound and outbound call data side by side in the same row.

  • Workforce tracking: Reports not only the calls but also the number of staff in different roles (Manager, Supervisor, Agent, etc.) who logged into the system that day.

  • Total effort analysis: Calculates the overall workload based on total talk time and total call counts.

Benefits

Using the General Call Traffic report provides your business with strategic advantages in the following areas:

  • Capacity planning: You can optimize shift planning by seeing on which days call traffic increased and how many agents were working on those days.

  • Efficiency measurement: By comparing Total Duration with Total Number of Calls, you can analyze whether you received a high volume of short calls or long, complex calls.

  • Login audit: You can audit how many people (agents, supervisors, etc.) logged into the system that day according to the shift plan.

Report filters

Use the following basic filter to analyze the data for specific periods:

  • Date: Determines the time period the report covers.
