Column Name
Description
Type
CallID
Unique ID allocated to the call
Integer
Call Start
Date and time when the call reached the call handling platform, in DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS format. This is not necessarily the time the call is answered (and where call charges may be applied)
DateTime
Call End
DateTime
Dialled Number
Also known as Service Number, and is the number dialled by the calling party
Telephone Number
Description
Optional description, defined in the portal via Home>Numbers, or Home>Service Manager>Manage>Numbers, or via a Web API call
String
Calling Number
The calling party's number
Telephone Number
Called Number
The destination party's (i.e. the DCA Agent's) number
Telephone Number
Withheld
The caller's CLI status - Yes=Withheld, No=Not Withheld
String
Total Duration
Calculated from the point when the call arrives on the platform if the call was answered immediately in order to play audio for example, whether the call is ultimately answered by a called party or not, and this field will contain data regardless of call type. 'Total Duration' will be the same as 'Handling Time' (±1sec due to rounding) if the call is answered immediately by the called party without any preceding queuing activity - i.e. it doesn't include the 'Call Waiting Duration'
HH:MM:SS
Call Result *
Set to '†Answered' if the call is answered by the called party, whether the outdial is related to DCA or not, or if the call is answered by the platform. Set to 'Failed' if the outbound call encountered a network condition such as 'Number Unobtainable'
String
​Call Outcome
'No Agents Available' at the point the caller hung up. 'Handled' - i.e. call was answered by a DCA Agent. 'Abandoned' for calls that hung up either before the Agent answered (or if the Agent was engaged or presenting some other network condition at the point of hang up), or the call was being held back in the queue - i.e. there was no active outdial to an agent at the point the caller hung up
String
SkillSet ID
The SkillSet that handled the call. See Home > Service Manager > DCA > SkillSets
String
Abandoned Duration
The amount of time a caller was waiting in the queue for a DCA Agent to become available (this may also include the time the Agent's phone was ringing), but then hung up to end the call
HH:MM:SS
Call Waiting Duration
​This field is blank for calls that did not use any DCA functionality. Call Waiting Duration does not necessarily mean the call was in the queue waiting for a DCA Agent to become available - this is also the ring time once the call leaves the queue, or if the call bypassed the queue altogether because there was Agent capacity ready to handle the call. Call Waiting Duration also reflects the time a call spends waiting for an Agent to answer their call, but their call ultimately goes unanswered
HH:MM:SS
Talk Time Duration
'Answered' talk time - whether a DCA call or not. This field will be blank for unanswered calls, whether DCA-related or not
HH:MM:SS
*Depending on the level of complexity in a Service Plan assigned to a Service Number, an individual call can encounter more than one call result, but only the final call outcome is reported. For example, an outbound call to a destination that returns busy tone may cause the service flow to attempt a new outdial to a different destination that does answer the call. This call attempt will be reflected in the report as "Answered" - but the busy tone that the initial outdial attempt encountered will not be reflected in the "Engaged" column - it is effectively lost as far as this Pulse report is concerned.
†An inbound call will be marked in the first instance as "Answered" in the following scenarios:
If the first event encountered in the call is audio (passive audio or a menu prompt for example) - i.e. the platform has answered the call. (Note: the "Answered" status may be superseded by another status if for example the audio is then followed by an outdial attempt that does not result in an answered call.)
Date and time when the call terminates, in DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS format. This is not necessarily the time when the calling party terminates the call - for Service Plans with functionality, this may be the time the called party terminates the call
If an outbound call has been answered by the destination. (Note: the "Answered" status may be superseded by another status if the successful outdial is then followed by other activity from a node, where a subsequent outdial is attempted that does not result in an answered call.)
