Question

Is there a place that defines the metrics on the analytics dashboard?

I am trying to recreate the metrics on the analytics dashboard, specifically the “Response Time Average for all ticket statuses”

I have created a custom ticket view - but when I export the data and calculate the average it does NOT match the average response time when I am on the same custom view, and click analytics.

Has anyone else had this issue?  What does specifically the “all ticket statuses” mean? 

Thanks!

Jenn

@JMeschi 823a0b5 cherokee Hi 👋🏻 and thanks for reaching out via the iiQ Community! Would you be able to provide us with some screenshots since custom views can be so customizable? 

Generally speaking, ticket status’ map to a workflow stage, which drives things like what can (or can’t) be done in a ticket. These also connect to a ticket state of either open or closed. So for instance, the Submitted workflow says a ticket can be started, canceled, or commented on. The ticket status can be mapped to any words the district likes and that workflow state is in the open state. A ticket mapped to the Resolved workflow stage says that nothing can be done to the ticket and is in the closed state.

Does that help? As the CSM for Cherokee Co. Schools, I’m always happy to schedule some time to dive in deeper. 


Thanks so much! I am newly supporting CCSD, nice to meet you!

 

From Reports → Tickets → Filter for created 9/1-9/30 and apply all SLAs. This is the default and has not been customized. Screen shot below.

It shows me an average response time of 4 hours.

However when I go to Tickets → created a custom view with the exact same filters → and export it to Excel, the average response time from the SLA does NOT match the average response time shown on the screenshot above.

So my question is - what is the metric definition of “Response time (avg.) for all ticket statuses? I believe that is a default metric.  If not, please tell me where it is defined in the admin set-up.

According the the KB guide for SLAs this is the definition of Response Time:

  • Response Time:  The time from when the ticket was submitted to when it started (when the status is set to In Progress)

There is also this FAQ about setting up custom metric SLAs that is super helpful:

Hope this helps!


I would like to set-up a meeting to discuss further.  I have a single ticket example that would help explain the discrepancy I am seeing. I will submit a support case.

Issue: Response Time in application not matching response time in Export

I would like to understand if the discrepancy I am seeing between response time on this single ticket is due to the SLA configuration, the export settings, or a technical issue.

Example: Ticket #411967

SLA: Technology Support Services

Screen in Incident IQ ticket details: Response time is 3.8 hours

Export of ticket details: SLA Response time is 0.5 days

@JMeschi 823a0b5 cherokee Thanks so much for the example! I’ve sent an email your way to schedule some time on my calendar to take a deeper dive. I’m looking forward to it!
