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 calls of each user.
Note
Depending on your job function, you may not have access to every
report that is described in this chapter.
CDR Analysis and Reporting provides system reports for
managers and CAR administrators. Managers or CAR administrators can access the
QoS summary report. Only CAR administrators can access all other reports. This
section describes the following reports:
QoS
Detail - Available for CAR administrators. The QoS detail
report provides the QoS ratings that are attributed to inbound and outbound
calls on the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager network for the
period that you specify. Use this report to help monitor the voice quality of
all calls on a user-level basis for the entire system. The call details in CDRs
and CMRs and the QoS parameters that you choose provide the basis for assigning
a particular voice-quality category to a call.
Summary - Available for managers and CAR administrators. This
report provides a two-dimensional pie chart that shows the distribution of QoS
grades that are achieved for the specified call classifications and period. The
report also provides a table that summarizes the calls for each QoS. The call
details in CDRs and CMRs and the QoS parameters that you choose provide the
basis for assigning a call to a particular voice-quality category. Use this
report to monitor the voice quality of all calls through the network.
By Gateway - Available for CAR administrators. This report
shows the percentage of the calls for each of the chosen gateways that meet the
QoS criteria that the user chooses. You can generate this report on an hourly,
daily, or weekly basis.
By Call Types - Available for CAR administrators. This report
shows the percentage of the calls for each chosen call type that meet the QoS
criteria that the user chooses. You can generate this report on an hourly,
daily, or weekly basis.
Traffic
Summary - Available for CAR administrators. This report
provides information about the call volume for a period that you specify and
include only those call types and QoS voice-quality categories that you choose.
Use this report to determine the number of calls that are being made on an
hourly, weekly, or daily basis. This report helps you identify high- and
low-traffic patterns for capacity planning.
Summary by Phone Number - Available for CAR administrators.
This report provides information about the call volume for a period and set of
phone numbers that you specify. It includes only those call types and phone
numbers that you choose. You can generate the report on an hourly, weekly, or
daily basis. This report helps you determine high-usage users or groups by
aggregating the usage level across the users that you specify.
FAC/CMC
Client Matter Code - Available for CAR administrators. This
report allows administrators to view the originating and destination numbers,
the date and time that the call originated, the call duration in seconds, and
the call classification for calls that relate to each chosen client matter
code.
Authorization Code Name - Available for CAR administrators.
This report allows administrators to view the originating and destination
numbers, the date and time that the call originated, the call duration in
seconds, the call classification, and the authorization level for calls that
relate to each chosen authorization code name.
Authorization Level - Available for CAR administrators. This
report allows administrators to view the originating and destination numbers,
the date and time that the call originated, the call duration in seconds, the
authorization code name, and the call classification for calls that relate to
each chosen authorization level.
Malicious Call Details - Available for CAR administrators. The
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Malicious Call Identification (MCID)
service tracks malicious calls. The Malicious Call Details report displays the
details of malicious calls for a given date range.
Precedence Call Summary - Available for CAR administrators. The
Cisco Unified Communications Manager Call Precedence service allows
authenticated users to preempt lower priority phone calls. The PDF version of
the CAR Precedence Call Summary report displays the Call Summary for the
precedence values in the form of a bar chart, on an hour of day, day of week,
or day of month basis, for each of the precedence levels that you choose. CAR
generates one chart for each precedence level, a table for each precedence
level that lists the number of call legs, and a subtable that summarizes the
percentage distribution for each precedence level. CAR makes the report
available on-demand; the report does not get autogenerated.
System Overview - Available for CAR administrators. Use the System
Overview report to see a high-level picture of the
Cisco Unified Communications Manager network. The System Overview provides
the following reports:
Top 5 Users Based on Charge
Top 5 Destinations Based on Charge
Top 5 Calls Based on Charge
Top 5 Users Based on Duration
Top 5 Destinations Based on Duration
Top 5 Calls Based on Duration
Traffic Summary Hour of Day - Incoming, Internal,
International, Local, Long Distance, On Net, Others, Tandem, and Total calls
Traffic Summary Day of Week - Incoming, Internal,
International, Local, Long Distance, On Net, Others, Tandem, and Total calls
Traffic Summary Day of Month - Incoming, Internal,
International, Local, Long Distance, On Net, Others, Tandem, and Total calls
QoS Summary
Gateway Summary
CDR Error - Available for CAR administrators. This report provides
statistics for the number of error records in the CAR Billing_Error table and
the reason for the errors. Use this report to determine whether CAR incurred
any errors with CDR data while the CDR data was loaded. This report lists the
percentage of CDRs that are invalid and the reason that these CDRs have been
classified as invalid.
Many reports in CAR provide a search function, so you can
look for users. The following CAR System reports support search by user: QoS
Details and Traffic Summary by Phone Number. You can mail all reports that can
be generated by using the Send Report button.
Before You Begin
You must use the window in System Reports that allows you to
search for users.
This section describes how to search for a user.
Procedure
Step 1

all users who matched the search criteria that you entered.
Step 3
In the row for the user that you want, click the
Select link.
The user that you chose gets added to the List of Users in the
User Search window. Repeat this step to add more users.
Step 4
