1. Genesys Cloud CX Resource Center, "Create and configure queues." Under the "Routing" tab configuration section, the documentation states: "In the Service Level field, specify the percentage of interactions you want answered in a specific time. The default is that 80% of interactions are answered in 20 seconds." This directly confirms the meaning of the 80/20 standard.
2. Genesys Cloud CX Resource Center, "Metrics definitions." The entry for "Service Level" defines it as: "The percentage of interactions that meet the queue’s service level target. Formula: (Number of answered interactions that met the service level target / (Number of answered interactions + Number of abandoned interactions that passed the service level target)) 100". This confirms that Service Level is a percentage calculated against a time target.
3. Genesys Cloud CX Resource Center, "Queues activity view." This document describes the Service Level column in performance views, explaining it shows "The percentage of interactions that met the defined service level for the queue," reinforcing that the primary value is a percentage based on a time threshold.
