Multi-Day Time Filter Impact on State Duration
How does a multi-day time filter affect state duration reporting?
A multi-day time filter can cause state durations to appear longer than 24 hours. This happens because the filter applies to both the Start and End times of an agent's state, which can result in a multi-day duration being reported on a single day.
For accurate reporting, ensure that both the Start and End times are included in the report. If a Time filter excludes one of these times, the duration cannot be calculated. When both times are included, the duration is reported on the date the Start time occurred, even if the End time is on a different date.
