If you view the real-time analytics dashboard for a specific queue by clicking the queue's name in the Call Queues section, you can see the breakdown of this KPI:
    • After Hours: Calls received outside of the queue's business hours or the member's business hours (if they are allowed to set their own business hours) and were overflowed based on the call queue's settings. This KPI consists of the following:
      • Forwarded to Voicemail (blue shaded): Calls received outside business hours that were forwarded to voicemail.
      • Forwarded to others (blue shaded): Calls received outside business hours that were forwarded to another extension or external number based on call handling settingsdelegation settings, or another call queue.
