The Frequent Numbers report shows a top-ranking list of the numbers that you call, or are called by, most frequently. By highlighting your most frequently-called destinations, the report can help you to determine if private circuits to your commonly-called destinations would be beneficial; it can also help you negotiate call rates with your network provider.

<h2>Introduction</h2>

<p>The Frequent Numbers report shows a top-ranking list of the most frequent numbers dialled. Use 
this information to decide, for example, whether you need to invest in 
private wires to common destinations such as your other offices or 
branches.</p>

<p>This report also helps in making decisions about which telecom 
carrier you should use to various call destinations. Partial telephone 
numbers can be specified so as to narrow your search down to very 
specific information, e.g. London numbers only.</p>
