Customizing Resolution Rate reports

Resolution Rate reports provide data on the resolutions rates for tickets.You can configure this report to include tickets that were resolved during the first contact, combining a First Contact Resolution Rate report and a Resolution Rate report into one. This provides a single report where you can watch the convergence of the data on those rates. You can select the date ranges and whether to base the report on Created data, Activated data, or all activity.

Workspace Administrators define which statuses are the Resolved statuses in the lifecycle. If you need to know which statuses are Resolved statuses, contact your Workspace Administrator.

The following tickets would be counted as First Contact Resolutions:

• A ticket was created by an agent and its status was set to one of the Resolved statuses immediately.
• A ticket or request was created by a customer and its status was changed by an agent to one of the Resolved statuses on the first agent edit.

If a ticket was counted as a First Contact Resolution ticket and then its status was changed to a not-resolved status, the ticket is no longer counted as a First Contact Resolution ticket.
