Breach rate
Why this matters
The Breach Rate shows how well each list met its targets over the last year: of the clients whose target date fell in that time, how many were not given a date before it passed. Splitting it by priority shows whether urgent clients are being protected at the expense of routine ones, or the other way round.
Before you start
Targets are set on each list. See Breach Dates and Targets.

What it contains
The report includes every entry whose target date falls in the period. An entry counts as breached when its target date passed before its TCI date, or passed with no TCI date set.
One row per waiting list, with an All Lists total row:
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| List | The waiting list |
| Total | Entries with a target date in the period |
| Breached | How many of them breached |
| Rate % | Breached as a percentage of Total, to two decimal places |
| Urgent, Soon, Routine | Total and Breached for each priority |
Lists with any breaches are highlighted in red.
The CSV file has the columns From, To, List, Total, Breached, Rate %, Urgent Total, Urgent Breached, Soon Total, Soon Breached, Routine Total and Routine Breached.
What to watch for
Removed clients count as breached If Status is left empty, every entry is included, whatever its status. A client removed without a TCI date, after their target date had passed, counts as a breach. Select the statuses you want to measure in Status.
A suspended client counts as breached The breach is measured against the target date before any suspension is added. A client whose breach date was moved later by a suspension can still count as breached here.
The period can’t be changed Waiting list reports have no date fields, so this report always covers the last 12 months.
Entries are missing, including every unassigned entry Unless you have Can view All Appointments, the report only includes entries with an assigned user. See Running Reports.
