Configuring Top N User Reports

---

CAR provides reporting capabilities for three levels of users:

•Administrators—Generate system reports to help with load balancing, system performance, and troubleshooting.

•Managers—Generate reports for users, departments, and QoS to help with call monitoring for budgeting or security purposes and for determining the voice quality of the calls.

•Individual users—Generate a billing report for their calls.

Configuring Top N Reports

Top N Charge reports the users who made the maximum charge for the specified date range. If you are a manager, the report includes the top charges for all calls that users who report to you made during the specified period. If you are a CAR administrator, the report includes the top charges for all calls that all users on the system made for the specified period. You can generate each Top N Charge report with options to show the information by individual users, by destinations, or by all calls.

Top N Duration reports the top number of users that incurred a maximum time on calls during a period that you specify. If you are a manager, the report lists the top number of users who report to you that incurred a maximum time for calls that were made during the chosen date range, starting with the longest. If you are a CAR administrator, the report lists the top number of users that incurred a maximum time for calls that were made during the chosen date range, starting with the longest. You can generate each Top N Duration report with options to show the information by individual users, by destinations, or by all calls.

Top N Number of Calls reports the top number of calls that were made and received by users during a period that you specify. If you are a manager, the report lists the top number of calls by users among the users who report to you for the chosen date range. If you are a CAR administrator, the report lists the top number of calls for each user in the system. You can generate each Top N Number of Calls report with options to show the information by individual users and by extensions.

Configuring Top N by Charge Reports

This section describes how to generate, view, or mail reports about the top calls when classified by cost.

Procedure

---

Step 1 Perform one of the following tasks:

•If you are a manager, choose Top N > By Charge.

•If you are a CAR administrator, choose User Reports > Top N > By Charge.

The Top N Charge window displays.

Step 2 In the Select Call Types area, check the check boxes for the types of calls that you want the report to include. These boxes display only when you choose Generate New Report from the Available Reports drop-down list box, as described in Step 4. Table 5-1 describes the call types.

Table 5-1 Top N by Charge Call Types 

Call Type	Description
On Net	Outgoing calls that originate on one Cisco Unified Communications Manager network, go out through a trunk, and terminate on a different Cisco Unified Communications Manager network. For CAR purposes, be aware that any outgoing call can be classified as an On Net call if it is configured as such in the CAR dial plan configuration window. See "Configuring the Dial Plan" section on page 29-2.
Internal	Calls, including intracluster calls, that originate in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network and end in the same Cisco Unified Communications Manager network (no gateways or trunks are used).
Local	Local calls that are routed through the public switched telephone network (PSTN) to numbers without an area code or that include one of the local area codes.
Long Distance	Long-distance calls that originate in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network going out through the PSTN.
International	International calls that originate in the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network and go out through the PSTN.
Incoming	Inbound calls that originate outside the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network and enter the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network through a gateway.
Tandem	Inbound calls that originate outside the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network, enter the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network through a gateway, and transfer outbound from the Cisco Unified Communications Manager network through a gateway.
Others	All other outgoing calls, such as toll-free numbers or emergency calls such as 911.
