2. A pie chart is shown, outlining the percentage of successful calls and unsuccessful calls of total calls made.
3. There is also a time series chart, showing total outbound call duration (in minutes), over months.
4. Scrolling down on the report will provide a table view of individual calling data, showing information pertaining to each call made (including user details, ODS, SIP address, callee/caller number, caller ID, call type, invite time, etc.. Scroll across right to view more).
5. Further down the report, there will be a pie chart breakdown of the reason for unsuccessful calls. This is to help identify and troubleshoot any persistent calling issues . By hovering over areas of the chart, more details will be displayed.
