The Quick call search offers a rapid way to locate specific calls in the central database, as an alternative to running a full call report. You can filter your search by using the filters described below:
Call type
This filter allows you to define the type of call you want to report on, in terms of where the call originated and where it was delivered, e.g. incoming, outgoing, internal etc. To report on all types of call, set this to All calls.
Period
The Period search field helps you to define the time period the results should cover. The period selected by default is Today. To select a different period, expand the drop-down list and choose from the available options.
Field | Description |

Today | The start and end dates are set to the current date. The start time is set to 00:00:00 and the end time to 23:59:59. |

Dialled number
To filter calls to a specific dialled number, type it in the text box provided. To filter calls to a specific area, a partial number can be entered e.g. entering 01234567890 or 07will suffice.
If you want to search for more than one number, use a comma to separate the entries. You can also enter partial numbers or the * character, to filter numbers beginning with a particular code or number sequence.
CLI
The CLI field helps you search for calls made from any full or partial phone number. Wildcard characters are not necessary; e.g if your call originated in Manchester you can enter 0161 .
You can also use any of the combinations shown in the Dialled number field above. If you want to search for calls to and from a particular number, simply enter the number (or list of comma separated numbers) in both the Dialled number and CLI field.
Site
The Site search field enables you to specify the site you want your results to cover. Select (All sites) to search across all sites.
Group
Having chosen a specific site, you can optionally limit the search results to a specific user group on that site, by selecting it in the Group search field.
User
Having chosen a specific site and user group, you can also limit the search to a specific user by selecting it in the User search field.
Limit results to
This feature enables you to specify how many search results you want to display per page. To set the limit, enter the desired number in the field provided. For example, if you enter 50 in the Limit results to field, the serach will return only 50 results.
Any search results will be shown in place of the Most Recent Calls panel to the right-hand side, as shown below.
