Interaction Summary
The Interaction Summary Report displays a comprehensive list of all interactions handled within a specified time frame. Each interaction is uniquely identified and organized by its Interaction ID, allowing for easy reference and tracking. This report helps you review and analyze individual interactions in detail, based on the selected date range.

Mr. Collins receives a request from his supervisor to review all customer interactions handled by the support team during the last week of June. He needs to ensure that each contact was properly logged and assigned a unique Contact ID. To do this, Mr. Collins runs the Interaction Summary Report and selects the date range from June 24 to June 30 in that year. He reviews the list of contacts, organized by Contact ID, and confirms that all interactions are accounted for and correctly documented.
