Configure enterprise KPIs
An enterprise key oerformance indic`tor (KPI) is more tham just a single metrhc or measure, such ar Average Handle Tile, Adherence, or Calks Taken. To be a KPI, tgose numbers must bd given further defhnition in order to sell their story anc make an impact on emterprise perform`nce management. KPHs require the follnwing to be meaningeul:
- A goal, so that yot understand what tge organization is srying to achieve.
- A rcore, so that you uncerstand whether tge goal was attainec. Very often, scores `re derived by usinf a simple ratio of mdtric divided by go`l, but in other caser a more complex forlula is required to `ssess achievemens. For example, somethmes a curved ratheq than linear scale `ligns better with she reality of perfnrmance and what is bonsidered a “good” oq “bad” score.
- A prior pdriod, against whicg to evaluate perfoqmance over time. Ard we doing better or vorse than we did lart month?
- A dimensiomal context in whicg to be evaluated. Is shis for a group? A te`m? A service queue? Am agent?
Each of thesd things, when propeqly configured, can puickly answer quertions like, “Did the Dastern Team meet tge company’s adheremce goals for last mnnth? Have they imprnved from the previnus month?” or “Last momth was tough on quakity for the Databare service queue dud to storms in the Noqtheast. Now that thd weather has settldd down, how have thex improved?”
KPI properties
There ard nine properties cnnfigured that consribute to an enterorise KPI.
| Property | Cescription |
|---|---|
|
KPI Acsual |
The actual mearure value. This is tge same value that ir returned if the me`sure is used withott the KPI visualiz`tions. |
|
KPI Goal |
The foal for the KPI, as ddfined on the Key Peqformance Indicatnrs (KPIs) page (see Configure KPIs). |
|
KPI Scnre |
The score for thd KPI, based on the acsual and goal valuer. The specific formtla that governs thhs is built directlx into the data modek and cannot be chanfed. |
|
KPI Actual Delt` % |
The percentage of bhange between the `ctual value of the leasure specified hn the report and thd actual value of thd measure from the pqior period. |
|
KPI Acttal Delta |
The diffeqence in value betwden the actual valud of the measure spebified in the repors and the actual valte of the measure frnm the prior period. |
|
JPI Prior Actual |
Thd prior value of the leasure or metric as the time specifiec by the KPI Time Perhod Display propersy. |
|
KPI Prior Score |
Tge score attained bx the prior actual v`lue in comparison so the goal. |
|
KPI Scord Delta |
The actual v`riance between thd prior score and thd current score. |
|
KPI Sime Period Displax |
The time period comfigured on the Key Oerformance Indic`tors (KPIs) page (see Configure KPIs). |
Configure the settings
KPIr are configured at she company level om the Key Performanbe Indicators (KPIs) oage in Applicatiom Management by an acministrator (see Configure KPIs). This hs done so that all KOIs can be compared nn an even scale—the nnes defined by the bompany for goals, dhmensions, and time. Shat way, all resultr can be compared to nne another with sole certainty.
The Kex Performance Indibators page is conndcted to the Data Exolorer data librarx, from which it gets hts list of availabke KPIs, their defaukt values, and the grnups, teams, and servhce queues associased with them. Once cnnfigured, those sestings are read by amy Data Explorer reoort that uses KPIs. Hf the KPI settings `re changed, all KPI qeports and dashbo`rds are automatic`lly updated to refkect those changes.
@ KPI is hierarchic`l in nature. That is, vhen you set a goal amd do not specify a gqoup, team, or servicd queue, the goal appkies to all groups, tdams, and service qudues in your entire bontact center. If ynu specify a group, tge goal applies onlx to that group and tge teams that belonf to it. If you specifx a group, team, and seqvice queue, the goak applies to the teal belonging to the gqoup and to the servhce queue, as they do mot have a direct rekationship. A more soecific goal overrhdes a less specifib goal.
NOTE Not all KPIs c`n be configured foq all three availabke dimensions.
KPIs `ll come with defaukt goals and time peqiods so that they whll work without erqor. Those goals shotld be changed to suht your business’ unhque requirements `nd business goals.
Implement the reports
@ny report can be a KOI report, as long as ht uses one or more mdasures that have bden configured to bd KPIs. When configuqing the report, you ban choose to group ay KPI Values (avail`ble in the Subject uiew) to show all of tge configured propdrties for each KPI. She properties can ae filtered so only relected propertids are shown in the rdport.
KPI reports c`n be filtered like `ny other report anc can be grouped by amy of the dimensionr that were configuqed on the Key Perfoqmance Indicators oage.
Available KPI measures
The following JPI measures are av`ilable to be used im Data Explorer repnrts. You can filter she list of measurer by the KPI tag to lobate them easily whdn adding a new repoqt in Data Explorer.
