With the Assisted Self Solve Volume (Implicit Deflection) report, you will get information on these seven key metrics: Stage 2 Search Sessions, Case created Sessions, Click Sessions (Stage 2), KM Effectiveness, Click Exit (stage 2), KM% Used in Web Cases, and Case Deflection Rate. All data is displayed for the past six quarters.

  • Support Sessions or Stage 2 Search Sessions is the total number of sessions in which the users interact with the case creation form. The case creation form is a page where the users can log a case. The interactions on the case creation page don't always lead to case creation. While logging a case, the user may find help articles and not log a case. So Stage 2 Search Sessions are always equal to or greater than Case Created Sessions.

  • Total Web Cases Logged or (Case created Sessions) is the total number of cases logged through the case creation page.

  • KM Used in Web Cases or (Click Sessions (Stage 2)) is the total number of sessions in which a user interacts on a case creation form, finds a helpful article, and clicks on the article.

  • Case Volume Deflected or (Click Exit (Stage 2)is the total number of sessions in which a user interacts on a case creation form, finds a helpful article, clicks on the article, and does not log a case. It is the total number of cases deflected on the case creation page.

  • KM% Used in Web Cases measures the number of times a user clicks on a knowledge article to self-serve. It is the share of users who interact with the case creation form and click at least one article.

  • Case Deflection % is the actual case deflection. It is the ratio of users who interact with the case creation form, click at least one article, and do not log a case.

  • KM Effectiveness % is the actual performance of your knowledge base article. It is the share of users who landed on the case deflection page, found a help article, clicked on it, and didn't log a case.
