What is a summary panel?

Summary panels are normally used to display  a summary of information, e.g. the longest call, the most expensive call, the total number of inbound calls etc. 

Summary panels are normally used to display call statistics based on a particular call type or call property, e.g. the longest call, the most expensive call, the total number of inbound calls etc. 


Adding a summary panel

To add a summary panel, click on the  toolbar button to expand the list of panel types and choose the button, as shown below:


After selecting the summary panel button, the mouse pointer changes into a white crosshair pointer, indicating that the designer is ready to draw your panel. Click and hold your left mouse button, starting at the point defining the upper-left corner of your new panel. Whilst still holding down the left mouse button, drag the marquee that will appear to the point that will define the lower-right corner of your panel, as shown below:


Customising a summary panel

Selecting a stats point

To choose the entity which the information in this summary panel should apply to, select a stats collection point, by clicking on the Find button.


A new window will open, allowing you to drill-down to the site or group level in the Directory, where the stats point object you want to add resides. To select the stats point, click on the  icon alongside it.


This will now appear as your chosen stats point.

Selecting the call type

Selecting the information type

To select the type of call information you want to display in this summary panel, such as total duration, response time, etc., click on the Column drop-down list and choose from the available options, as shown below:


Show summary values

Show the name of the user

In the example below, we have selected to show the longest outbound call, so the Call type is Outbound, and Column is Maximum Duration. Ticking the box to display the name of the user meeting the criteria above, the summary panel will display the call with the max duration and the name of the person that reach this threshold.


The summary panel of this last example will show as follows:

Image styleChoose how the image should be displayed.
ColourChoose the background colour of the panel; if you are adding an image, you may want to select Transparent so that this does not interfere with your image.
