The Agent Schedule Adherence dashboard displays the scheduling adherence and conformance data for a single day and multiple days. A single day's data is further divided into summary and hourly information. You can use this dashboard to ensure that the contact center agents are working efficiently within their set schedules.

All the three tabs in the dashboard display the following information in common:
Adherence %: The amount of time an agent worked and how that time aligns with the scheduled time. The time worked includes call time, after-call wrap, and scheduled activities such as meetings and training. It is the most important metric and can have a greater negative impact to contact centers. The percentage calculation works as below: Adherence % = (minutes in adherence/total scheduled minutes) x 100
Occupancy %: The amount of time an agent spends on call handling activities in the ready state from the available time. The percentage calculation works as below: Occupancy % = (time in ready/total available time) x 100
Utilization %: The amount of time an agent spends on call handling activities in the ready state from the scheduled time. The percentage calculation works as below: Utilization % = (time in ready/total scheduled time) x 100
Conformance %: The amount of total working time from the scheduled time. The percentage calculation works as below: Conformance % = (working minutes/scheduled minutes) x 100
Each of the tabs displays the following additional agent statistics:
Multi-Day
Scheduled Time: Total scheduled work time
Actual Time: Total time an agent logs into a desktop and performs work
Active Time: Total of waiting time + Incall time + Wrap up time expressed as HH:MM:SS (Hours:Minutes:Seconds)
Time in Adherence: Total time of agent adherence to the scheduled time
Single Day Hourly Displays the graphical representation of scheduled and actual time with different colors for each of the following statistics:

Defining Compliance Thresholds
Compliance thresholds are used to highlight statistics that are out of compliance, based on the values you define.
To define thresholds for compliance:
Click the Thresholds tab.
Specify values in the following fields as required.
Adherence Percentage: Enter a value that indicates an agent's conformance with the scheduled tasks for the contact center, in percentage. The value represents the timeThe formula used to calculate this value is as follows: (Time spent working / Total scheduled time) x 100 Example: If you expect your agents to conform to the scheduled tasks 85 percent of the time, enter the value 85.
Occupancy Percentage: Enter a value that indicates an agent's occupancy for the contact center, in percentage. The value represents the time during which an agent handles calls and performs related activities in the ready state, The formula used to calculate this value is as follows: (Time spent in the ready state / Total available time) x 100 Example: If you expect your agents to handle calls or perform other scheduled tasks 95 percent of the total time that they are available to do so, enter the value 95.
Utilization Percentage: Enter a value that indicates an agent's utilization for the contact center, in percentage. The value represents the amount of time during which an agent handles calls and performs related activities in the ready state, expressed The formula used to calculate this value is as follows: (Time spent in the ready state / Total scheduled time) x 100 Example: If you expect your agents to handle calls or perform other scheduled tasks 90 percent of the total time that they are scheduled to do so, enter the value 90.
Conformance Percentage: Enter a value that indicates an agent's conformance with the scheduled work duration for the contact center, in percentage. The value represents the time during which an agent works, expressed The formula used to calculate this value is as follows: (Time spent working / Total scheduled time) x 100 Example: If you expect your agents to work 98 percent of the total time that they are scheduled to do so (including starting early or finishing late), enter the value 98.

Note
The conformance percentage might be higher than 100% if agents work for a duration that exceeds the scheduled work duration.
Schedule Adherence Tolerance: Enter the amount of time that indicates the gap between two events that are initiated by agents and must be reported, in seconds.
Example: If you want the time between the last reported event and the event that must be next reported to be five seconds, enter the value 5. This ensures that any event that occurs five seconds after the last reported event is reported.
