MetricWhat does it measure?How do we calculate it?What has changed vs Old Dashboard?
Issues CreatedNumber of new Issues createdCount of (Issue Created timestamp within selected range)No Change
Issue Resolves
Count of issue state as "Resolved" within a given timeframe - whether by Agents or BotsCount of issue state as "Resolved" within a given timeframe - whether by Agents or BotsTo enable better tracking, the count of ‘Resolves' will not include the count of 'Rejects’

Backlog

The total number of issues open at the end of the given time range.

Please note that the historical backlog will be present only for 45 days before the new analytics dashboard release date. The backlog data will be present for the last 45 days post-migration to the new dashboard.

The total number of issues open at the end of the given time range.

 

Note: In Overview & Issue Trend reports, we show overall backlog, irrespective of assigned or unassigned to agent.

Backlog

The total number of issues open at the end of the given time range.

Please note that the historical backlog will be present only for 45 days before the new analytics dashboard release date. The backlog data will be present for the last 45 days post-migration to the new dashboard.

This is Backlog or Open issues assigned on agent metric

At the end of the time period, how many issues are in the open state for the agent.

Note: Team Trends (Workload) shows backlog assigned to agents only.

No Change
Issues Worked On

The total number of unique issues on which an agent has performed any of the following activities:

  • Outbound Messages

  • Issue Resolves

  • Issue Rejects

  • Add private notes

  • Add tags 

  • Add CIFs

Issues worked on counts only the first activity made to an issue per agent, on the date the action was completed.

The total number of unique issues on which we see any of the following activity by the agent.

  • Outbound Messages

  • Issue Resolves

  • Issue Rejects

  • Add private notes

  • Add tags 

  • Add CIFs

Note that we do not consider the bot's reply or if the bot added a private note.
We store this metric per half hour, so the issue would be unique per half-hour.

Added four new activities performed by an agent besides ‘outbound messages’ and 'private notes. This will enable better tracking of agent workload.

  2. Analytics > Advanced Analytics > Team > Summary by Agents: Provides aggregate of workforce management metrics for individual agents for selected date range.

  3. Analytics > Advanced Analytics > Team > Summary by Groups: Provides aggregate of workforce management metrics at group level for all agents in a group for selected date range.

Note: The only filters available for the above workload and workforce management metrics are Date and Agent.

Intent Analytics

Apart from Issue Metrics, two new metrics for the Intent analytics report have been introduced. Please refer to the table below for more details:

MetricWhat does it measure?How do we calculate it?
Intent Issue RateThis metric shows the percentage of Intent Issues out of the total issues created.Smart Intent and Automatic Intent Assignment Issues / Issues Created * 100
Automatic Intent Assignment (AIA)This metric shows the number of issues where the AI assigned the intent. Count of issues created with Intent Assigned Automatically within the selected range.

Note: We are actively working towards unifying Helpshift analytics across all the existing channels like PowerBI, Analytic API, and analytics dashboard.
