Step 1: Add the Contacts measure

  1. Click Data Explorer in the top menu.
  2. Click New Report (upper left corner of the page). The blank report page appears.
  3. Click [measure]. The Select Measure window opens.
  4. Select Contacts.

  5. Click Add. The Measure: Contacts window closes, and the basic report appears. At this point, it shows the total number of contacts taken since your organization began using Calabrio ONE:

Step 2: Group the contacts by day

  1. Click [grouping]. The Select Grouping window opens.
  2. Click Time (upper right corner of the window).
  3. Select Contact Start Time.
  4. In the Period panel, select Day of Week.

  6. Click [grouping].
  7. Click Time.
  8. Select Contact Start Time.
  9. In the Period panel, select Day of Month.

  10. Click Add. The report now looks like this. We’ve shown only the first few rows, but you get the idea.
