Backlog
The gross number of support contacts that have yet to be addressed or resolved within a set amount of time.
- A backlog usually specifically refers to those contacts which have extended beyond your team's expected handling time and does not include those still within the expected handling time. That said, a backlog can easily compound upon itself as new contacts continue to breach the expected handling time while the team works on addressing the issue.
