Metric
Metric Description

All Transaction

Displays an overview of all transactions that occurred during the selected time period using a bar chart.

Bounced Transaction

Displays the number of transactions that were bounced during the selected time period.

Bounced transactions occur when an application is opened but closed before generating a start transaction event (ie. before the user clicks or enters any input into a field).

Started Transaction

Displays the number of transactions started during the selected time period.

A transaction start event occurs when at least one text/number field is typed-in or at least one checkbox/drop down is clicked by the user.

Abandoned Transaction

Displays the number of transactions that were abandoned during the selected time period.

Abandoned transactions occur when a transaction has one start event but the application is closed before it is completed and the user never returns to complete the transaction.

Completed Transaction

Displays the number of transactions that were completed during the selected time period.

Transaction may have started but this metric represents when a user completes all mandatory fields and clicks submit.

Completion Rate

Displays the completion rate of the transactions during the selected time period.

Median Time

Displays the median time taken to be completed by each transaction during the selected time period.

Aggregation

The Timeline View allows you to set the aggregation. The aggregation will break the graph up into blocks of either minutes, hours, days or weeks. For example, if your set time period is Last Month, you then have the choice to aggregate the data by days, weeks or fortnightly. For each Scope Selector time period, there are several aggregations available for you to choose from. See the aggregation options available below.'  

Time Period Aggregation options

Today

15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours

Yesterday

15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours

Last Week

4 hours, 1 day

Last Fortnight

4 hours, 1 day

Last Month

1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks

Last Quarter

1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks, 30 days

Last Year

1 week, 2 weeks, 30 days, 90 days, 180 days

Custom

Variable depending on Time Frame Selection

The Aggregation that you select will depend on the time frame you are analyzing. For instance, it makes sense to aggregate a 1-day period by 15-minute time periods, but for a period of 1 year, an Aggregated By value of 30 days (1 month) makes more sense.

Split By

The Split By dropdown allows you to split the results based on a browser, device, application version, operating system or space (not applicable for All Transaction).
