status totals every 15 minutes. The report windows show the following items
·traffic status,·traffic activity (explanation on page 5-4),
·service status,·agent activity (explanation on page 5-4).
·agent status,

							Traffic Activity— The Real Time Traffic Activity window shows the activity percentage for the Lines,
Waiting call and the Agent. The Line indicates the percentage of activity on the lines assigned to group.
The activity for the lines can be green for incoming call or yellow for outgoing call. The Waiting
indicates what percentage of the incoming calls are actually waiting for an agent. The activity for the
waiting call can be red for the calls past the alarm threshold (>T) or black for the calls below alarm
threshold. The Agents indicates the percentage of active agents in the possible activity states. The activity
for the agents can be gray for agents in Busy state, green for agents on incoming call and yellow for
outgoing call.
Agent Activity— The Real Time Agent Activity window shows the current state of each agent signed in
to the group. The agent’s name programmed in the QuickQ is displayed in one of the four possible states.
The agent can be in blue for idle state, gray for Busy state, yellow for Outgoing state or green for
Incoming state. The list of names under each possible state is shown based on the longest time in the
activity state. The agent’s name box may changed to red under the possible states, if the time in that state
has exceeded the acceptable time set for that state.

							Selecting QuickQ MIS Reports
The QuickQprovides comprehensive Management Information System (MIS) reports that you can either
view on the call processor computer screen or print as a hard copy. The system updates and automatically
stores all reports and can present the data in both graphic and numerical formats. This reported
information assists the System Manager in making efficient use of lines and agents.
The system collects over 63,000 different statistics and presents them in 80 different MIS reports. The
system reports are related to the following time periods:
·hourly,
·daily,
·weekly,
·monthly.
The system reports are categorized for the following four operational levels:
·TheSystem levelreports show data for all lines and agents on the system
·TheGroup levelreports provide data for each group programmed on the system.
·TheLine levelreports provide data for each telephone line within a specific group.
·TheAgent levelreports show data for each agent in a specific group.
Viewing Typical MIS Reports
The system provides the following report formats:
·answer bins (Figure 5-4)
·abandon bins (Figure 5-5)
·incoming call (Figure 5-6)
·total time (Figure 5-7)
·average time (Figure 5-8)
·system capacity (Figure 5-9)
·account code (Figure 5-10)
·traffic analysis (Figure 5-11)
