What does this metric mean?

The Channels included in the group of Chat Channels can be:

• Zendesk Chat 
• Apple Business Chat
• Facebook Messenger
• Instagram Direct Message
• Line
• Telegram
• Twitter Direct Message
• Viber
• WeChat

🔥 To see the breakdown of the tickets supported per all these grouped channels, simply unwrap the Metric:

🧮 How do we calculate this metric?

Every time the agent "touches" the ticket, or leaves 1 touchpoint, that came through one of the named above channels, we add this ticket as +1 to the Handled tickets for the respectful channel.

The result presented for the Chat grouped metric is a sum of all the tickets supported through the mentioned channels.

❗️If the agent supported the same ticket, or left multiple touchpoints, within the same ticket for the same day the ticket is only counted once for that day. 

💡 Example

- Agent A opened ticket #1 that came through the ZD Chat and sent the reply to the customer at 09:00 am on Monday. 

- On the same day, Agent A returned to the ticket to leave the Internal note at 10:00 am

- At 09:00 am on Tuesday Agent A received the reply from the customer and solved the ticket.

In the Agent Scorecard, Agent A will see 2 Handled tickets for the Chat group channel:

- 1 counted from Monday

- 1 counted from Tuesday
