<h2>Introduction</h2>

<img id="border" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_enterprise/user_activity.png" alt="User activity" />

<p>For PBX types that report on extension to extension calls, this 
report allows you to view the split between which incoming and outgoing 
calls received or made both internally and externally.</p>

<p>If a lot of extension to extension calls are made in your 
organisation, it can be used to quickly assess the amount of internal 
versus external call traffic.</p>

<h2>Understanding the Results</h2>

<p>When selecting <span class="reference">Web</span> as the output format, this report will appear as above.</p>

Overview

The User Activity report provides a comprehensive summary of internal and external call activity - both inbound and outbound - for each site, group or user. It is also possible to drill down into each entity to obtain the same call information at a more detailed level.

The report's results

The results of the report show comprehensive call summary information - organised by call type - for the report entity you selected. By clicking on the About this report link at the top-right corner of the page, you can review any filters and options that have been applied to the report.

As with all reports produced by TIM Enterprise, each page of the report includes the following information:

  • the report's title
  • the date and time that the report was generated
  • the name of the report, if applicable

The Web format is the most interactive of all formats: all column headers are click-sortable and most graphical and tabular elements can be drilled down into, allowing deeper analysis of your results.

Results are shown for each organisational level: site, group and individual user, where a table is shown with the following headers:

HeaderDescription
NameThe name of the entity for each line of data

Inbound

  • SquiggleImage Added: The number of inbound answered calls, including transferred calls
  • Ext duration: The total duration of all inbound external calls (in hours, minutes and seconds)
  • Int duration: The total duration of all inbound internal calls (in hours, minutes and seconds)

Outbound

  • SquiggleImage Added: The number of outbound calls made
  • Ext duration: The total duration of all outbound external calls (in hours, minutes and seconds)
  • Int duration: The total duration of all outbound internal calls (in hours, minutes and seconds)

Totals

  • SquiggleImage Added: The total number of calls including all inbound and outbound, both internal and external
  • Duration: The total duration of time spent on all inbound and outbound calls

Itemised call list

When drilling down into an individual user, the report style changes to an itemised call list rather than a call summary table:

The column headers of the itemised call list are as follows:

HeaderDescription
Date & TimeThe date and time the call started
SourceThe place from where the call originated
CLIThe telephone number of the remote caller for inbound calls

Route

The information displayed in this field is determined by the type of call:

  • for incoming calls, this shows the CLI of the caller
  • for incoming internal calls, this shows either the caller's username or extension number
  • for outgoing calls, this shows the dialled number

Destination

The information displayed in this field is determined by the type of call:

  • for incoming calls, this shows the name of the user whose extension answered the call, or the extension number if not available
  • for outgoing calls, this shows the geographical location that was dialled, or an alias if defined in your contacts list
  • for internal calls, this shows the extension that was dialled, enclosed in square brackets [ ]
ResponseThe length of time it took for the call to be answered (i.e. the response time)
DurationThe duration of the call (in hours, minutes and seconds)
CostThe cost of the call
