Report Generation

When you select option Reports from the menu on the left, the application pane will display the list of available reports. By default, these are the predefined reports supplied with Bright Pattern Contact Center. If you have previously created some custom reports using Jaspersoft Studio and uploaded their definitions into the system, such custom reports will also appear in the list of reports. For more information about stock and custom report definitions, see section Report Templates of the Contact Center Administrator Guide.


Reports overview


The reports are grouped by the type of contact center resources that they describe. Within each group, the reports are listed in alphabetical order according to the names of the corresponding report definitions. A description is provided for each report. If a description does not fit on the screen, hover over it to see the full text of the description in a tooltip box.

Select the desired type of report from the list. In the view that appears, use the report generation filters to select the resource for which you want to generate the report and to specify the reporting interval. Depending on the report type, you can select multiple resources and apply additional filters.

Agent Selection Options

For reports where the agent drop-down selector is present, please note the following:

  • Agent names are listed alphabetically in the drop-down selector; depending on your center's configured display name format, this will be by first or last name.
    • Depending on your center's configured name display, you may search for a specific agent by typing out the first letters of their name.


An example of searching for agent names starting with the letter "L"


  • Agents that have been inactive for more than 30 days will be excluded from the drop-down selector; agents that had activity within 30 days before the search period will have their names displayed as grey, italicized text.


Agent names displayed as grey, italicized text indicates activity recent to the search period but not within the period


  • Additionally, you may select the Show disabled/deleted agents checkbox from the drop-down menu to automatically include disabled and/or deleted agents from the report; the inclusion works even if agents had activity within the report's timeframe.

How to Run Reports

To generate the report, click the Run Report button at the bottom of the report details pane. Report generation may take a few moments.


Run Report


The report will appear in a separate browser tab/window and occupy the entire available browser window space. Thus, you can have multiple reports open in your browser at the same time. Generated reports will continue to be available for viewing even when you close the Contact Center Administrator application. Depending on the amount of data, the generated report may occupy more than one page.

If you export the report to a format such as .XLS, you can filter, sort, and reformat the data just as you would for any other spreadsheet.

Navigation

To navigate through the contents of the report, use the page navigation arrows or enter the page number you wish to view.
