Report Selection

When logged into Asternic you will have the option to chose a subset of your extensions to run a report. Also a date range and a time frame. There are some shortcuts to select a data range, like 'This Week', 'Last month', 'Yesterday', etc. You can also select a group instead of a set of extensions should you have groups configured for your extensions.

You will also see a call summary for the current date at the very top.

Once your selection is done you can run the report. If you have lots of data, it might take some time to bring you the first result, and you will be able to navigate to different reports by selecting their appropriate Tab in the web interface

Outgoing Tab

This section will show reports that includes only outgoing calls for the selected time period/etensions.

You will see three sections reports:

  • summary: report summary, showing some totals
  • grouped by user: group all calls per user
  • grouped by group/accountcode: group all calls per configured group or account code (like 'Sales Department')

Reports are identical in its nature, only change factor is the grouping field.


Incoming Tab

Similar to the outgoing tab, you will see only incoming calls that ended up being answered by any of your users/extensions. You will see three sections:

  • summary: report summary, showing some totals
  • grouped by user: group all calls per user
  • grouped by group/accountcode: group all calls per configured group or account code (like 'Sales Department')

Reports are identical in its nature, only change factor is the grouping field.

Combined Tab

These reports will combine and show both incoming and outgoing calls into the same report, always grouping results. Again you have 3 sections:

  • summary: report summary, showing some totals
  • grouped by user: group all calls per user
  • grouped by group/accountcode: group all calls per configured group or account code (like 'Sales Department')

Detailed Tab

This report shows a call detail, with no grouping at all, showing all individual calls made for the selected extensions in the selected time range. The report can be sorted arbitrarily by cliking on the column headers, and can be searched using the Search facility. You can also export data to different formats.

Distribution Tab

Reports here will change grouping by time intervals rather than extensions or groups. So you can see calls made per day, week, month, etc. There are also distribution by user in form of a heat chart per day.

Trunks

There is a chart with trunk usage over the time period selected for the report.

Distribution per User

At the top of all those charts you have a selection box where you can change the value to be represented in minutes or number of calls.

Each cell will have a color representing the 'heat/activity' for that user. The closer the call duration for that hour slot reaches 60, the redish it will show. No activity in white. Gradient startes from green on 1 minute to full red in 60 minutes.
