How you weigh those metrics is totally up to you and what's important for your team. These counts are pretty straightforward. Here's a quick breakdown: </p> <ul> <li><strong>All Channels </strong>is all about how many customers have been helped, and how many total conversations from all channels were handled. You'll also see which day of the week was busiest, alongside an average of conversations handled per day. </li> <li><strong>Email</strong> gives you a look at how email conversations were handled. You will see the number of replies sent and the response time, as well as resolution metrics. </li> <li><strong>Chat </strong>focuses only on the chat sessions, with the total number of chats, the wait time, duration, average number of messages per chat, and response time.  </li> <li><strong>Phone </strong>shows the total number of phone conversations logged, how many were new conversations, and how many customers this affected. </li> <li><strong>Happiness </strong>shows you an overall glimpse of the ratings and feedback you've received from customers. You'll also be able to view the accompanying conversations and customer name for each rating.</li> </ul> <p><img src="//d33v4339jhl8k0.cloudfront.net/docs/assets/524448053e3e9bd67a3dc68a/images/65468770a91735705d855d1d/file-PRCsUXANRN.png" style="width: 647px; max-width: 100%; "></p> <h4> What if I need to provide coaching on specific conversations?</h4> <p>The <strong>Conversation History</strong> section shows any conversations that have had <em>any</em> activity during your specified time period that this User has interacted with at any time. This will include any conversations this User replied to or modified during your specified time frame, as well any conversations this User has replied to or modified in the past that has some new interaction by any User or Workflow during your time frame. </p> <p>You'll notice some individual metrics in the table, each pertaining to that individual conversation.

This is not the same as Resolved, as Resolved requires a User reply. This metric simply counts conversations set to a status of Closed. </p> <h4>Individual User or Team Reports</h4> <p><strong>Conversations per Day</strong><br> The average number of new or updated (a reply is sent to the customer) conversations per day in the specified time frame. </p> <p><strong>Closed</strong><br> The number of conversations this specific Help Scout User or Team closed in the specified time frame. Whereas Resolved requires a User reply, this metric applies to all conversations with a status of Closed.  </p> <p id="totalConversations"><strong>Total Conversations</strong><br> Any conversations touched by any user in the time period, that the User has also touched at any time. This metric is not displaying <em>only</em> those conversations touched by the User during the given time period. </p> <ul> <li>If a user touches a conversation on Jan 1, then another user touches it on Jan 3, and you run a report for user 1 on Jan 3, the conversation they touched on Jan 1 will show up.</li> <li>There is no way to limit the history here to only conversations this user touched in this time period.
