Filters
When accessing the Task History, it is initially pre-filtered by direction, media group, and time period. Users can adjust their criteria using the enhanced suite of filters outlined below:
First-row filters:
- Direction: All, Inbound, Outbound. Indicates the direction of the conversation.
- Media Group: Call, Emails, Chats.
- Search by phone/email. Enables searching. Note: Searching by phone number is not available if the media group filter is set to email or chat.
- Show not evaluated tasks only. By default, this option is off. Enable it to display tasks without associated evaluations.
Second-row filters:
- Start date: Sets the start date of the time interval. Default is 7 days ago.
- End date: Sets the end date of the time interval. Default is today's date.
- Channels: Allows selection of one or more channels from the list. By default, no filter is applied.
- Add filter button. Enables adding additional filters such as:
- Queue: Filters tasks by queue.
- Agent: Filters tasks by agent name.
- CompletionCode: Filters tasks by completion codes used.
- Evaluator: Filters tasks by the person who completed the evaluation.
The list can also be ordered by the date-time, newest first or oldest first.
Delete chat messages
In case sensitive or inappropriate data was received or exchanged with the customer, you can remove the offending message from storage. It will be gone from all reports, the Customer activity history list on the portal and on the agent website too.
This is a physical removal—we will only retain a placeholder item in place of the original message.
-
Make sure the list presents chat items.
-
Click the View and download conversation history (eye icon) in the entry of choice. The two-party transcript modal opens up showing the full list of messages exchanged by the agent and the customer.
-
Hover the mouse over the offending message. The datestamp and a trashcan icon show up next to it.
-
Click the trashcan icon and confirm your deletion intent. The message is physically removed and a Message deleted by XY note is added instead, with your name.
Evaluations
Qualified personnel, typically quality analysts, managers, or supervisors, conduct evaluations in a call center.
For a step-by-step walk-through, from giving evaluators access to the agent's email, see the quality management tutorial.
To evaluate tasks, you need:
- the Update permission on Historical Reports & Insights in your role,
- scripting turned on for your tenant, and
- Scripting access set to User or Designer on your user.
To initiate an evaluation, click the evaluation icon (Click to start task evaluation) located on each task row on the right side of the screen.
For calls, the recording linked to the task will begin, and controls will be visible at the bottom of your screen. Chat and email tasks can be evaluated too; they have no recording, so read the conversation history instead.
In the Evaluate task dialog, select a script in Script used for evaluation.
Only scripts with the [QM] tag in their name (in any letter case) appear in this list. They are created by Graia CCaaS engineers as per your requirements.
Once you've chosen your script, click Start evaluation.
Proceed through your evaluation script. Upon completion of the evaluation and reaching the end of the script, an email will be sent to the agent containing a link to the evaluation for their viewing. Your email address will be added to the CC of the email as well, ensuring you retain a copy of the evaluation.
When the script includes a score, the task row shows it, together with the name of the last evaluator. A task can be evaluated again, by you or by another evaluator: click the evaluation icon again.
Export task history
The Task history report allows exporting the filtered results to CSV, allowing supervisors to store their data for later use.
