How to read it

Use these steps to read the Pulse Employee Report:

  1. Set Time Window and filters so the report matches the store, employee, or campaign you are reviewing.

  2. Start with summary tiles: IB Calls, AI IB Handled, and AI IB Handled % to see inbound volume versus handling.

  3. Review AI IB Opp, AI IB Appt Set, and related opportunity metrics to see whether identified opportunities are turning into appointments.

  4. Check OB Calls and AI OB Contacts for outbound Click-to-Call follow-through.

  5. Scan Pulse flag tiles such as AI Flagged by Pulse, AI Negative Sentiment, and AI Escalated Customers alongside volume metrics.

  6. Use the employee performance table to compare individuals, then open Glossary / Formulas if a metric label needs clarification.

Limitations

The Pulse Employee Report has these verified limits:

  • It includes only Click-to-Call employee tracking lines—not every line in the account.

  • Pulse AI metrics differ from Agent Inbound Conversion, which measures BDC inbound campaign conversion. Use each report for its intended scope.

  • Metric labels on the live dashboard may differ slightly from export column headers. Use Glossary / Formulas on the Reports page for authoritative definitions.

Common questions

Why is AI IB Handled % low on the Pulse Employee Report?

AI IB Handled % compares Pulse-identified handled inbound calls to total inbound calls on Click-to-Call employee lines. A low value usually means inbound tracking-line calls are not being answered or handled—review IB Calls and AI IB Handled together before coaching on outbound activity.

How is the Pulse Employee Report different from Agent Inbound Conversion?

Agent Inbound Conversion measures BDC inbound campaign conversion (handled calls, leads, and appointments on inbound campaigns). The Pulse Employee Report measures Click-to-Call employee tracking-line activity using Pulse AI signals. They are not interchangeable.

Why is an employee missing from the Pulse Employee Report?

The Pulse Employee Report includes only employees associated with Click-to-Call tracking lines. Employees on other line types do not appear on this report.

What does "AI" mean on a Pulse Employee Report metric?

An "AI" metric on the Pulse Employee Report is a result Pulse identified from the call recording or transcript. Use Glossary / Formulas for the plain-language definition of each label.

What to do next

After you read the Pulse Employee Report, download the employee table for a coaching session, adjust filters to compare stores, or open Glossary / Formulas if you need a metric definition before discussing results with your team.
