Service Level is defined as the percentage of incoming calls to a Team that is answered by an agent within a set amount of time. "Average Time to Answer" is a key performance indicator used by call centers to help monitor caller wait time and agent performance.  Genius Admins and Supervisors can track agents' average time to answer incoming calls via the "Teams report".  This helps improve the overall customer experience while giving managers the ability to measure agents' performance and highlight areas that require further attention. 

The Service Level is determined on an individual Team basis and is configured with a Service Level (%), which is the percentage of calls answered within the Service Level Target (seconds).  For example, a Service Level of 80% with a Service Level Target of 120 seconds can be seen as '80% of calls must be answered with 120 seconds' to meet the Service Level.  This configuration is under the Team Settings and an example is below:

  Genius Tip: You can update your dashboard at any time using the filter and date picker.

Once the filter settings of your  Inbound Teams dashboard are correct/updated, scroll down to view the "Call Distribution" over the selected time in the dashboard located at the bottom of your screen.

Genius Tip: Only answered or missed inbound calls, during business hours are measured. Outbound calls and calls that go to voicemail are not tracked.
