### Overview

The **ACD Abandon Call Summary Report** provides a **campaign-level summary** of all inbound or transferred calls that were **abandoned in ACD queues**.

It highlights **where and how often customers disconnect** before being attended, helping supervisors identify **queues or campaigns with high abandon rates** and assess **service quality** across the contact center.

### Purpose

Use this report to:

- Track abandoned call volumes across campaigns and queues.
- Identify queues with the **highest abandonment frequency**.
- Analyze **average customer wait time and IVR duration** for abandoned calls.
- Evaluate **contact center efficiency** and **service-level adherence**.

### Report Details

| **Column Name**                 | **Data Type** | **Description**                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| ------------------------------- | ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Campaign Name**               | String        | Name of the campaign in which the call was abandoned.                                                                                                                                                    |
| **Queue Name**                  | String        | Name of the **last queue** where the call was abandoned.                                                                                                                                                 |
| **Abandon at ACD**              | Number        | Total number of calls abandoned at the ACD (queue) level for that campaign.                                                                                                                              |
| **Avg. IVR Time**               | Duration      | Average time spent by callers in IVR before entering a queue and abandoning the call.  If a call is transferred to IVR multiple times, only the time spent **before the last queue entry** is included.  |
| **Avg. ACD Wait Time in Queue** | Duration      | Average duration that calls waited in the **last queue** before being abandoned.  Calculated as:  *Total wait time of all abandoned calls in the queue ÷ Total number of abandoned calls in that queue.* |
| **Avg. Queue Wait Time**        | Duration      | Average **queue wait time** for calls that were transferred between multiple queues without being answered. Only the wait time of the **final queue** where the call was abandoned is counted.           |
| **Avg. Wait Time**              | Duration      | Average wait time of all abandoned calls in the campaign.  Calculated as:  *Total wait time of all abandoned calls in the campaign ÷ Total number of abandoned calls in the campaign.*                   |

### Additional Notes

- This report shows **aggregated statistics** at the campaign level rather than individual call details.
- Supervisors can compare **average queue and campaign wait times** to determine which queues need staffing or routing optimization.
- If calls are transferred between multiple queues, only the wait time of the **final abandoned queue** contributes to averages.
- Visual charts (if enabled) such as *Average Queue Wait Time of Abandoned Calls* and *Average Wait Time of Abandoned Calls per Campaign* provide trend insights.

### Use Case Examples

- **Performance Monitoring:** Identify campaigns where abandonment rates exceed SLA thresholds.
- **Queue Optimization:** Determine if longer queues correlate with higher abandonment.
- **Service Quality Tracking:** Compare abandonment behavior between IVR-heavy and direct-to-agent campaigns.

### Interpretation

- **Customer Care (CustCare\_Queue\_A)** shows the **highest number of abandoned calls (67)**, with an **average wait time of 3 minutes**, suggesting high queue congestion.
- **TechSupport Premium** has the **shortest average wait time (1m 25s)** — indicating effective staffing or low traffic.
- **Billing Enquiries** and **Insurance Claims** both show elevated **Avg. ACD Wait Time**, which may require queue rebalancing or additional agent allocation.
