Assistant Usage Reports

CAR provides call completion usage reports for the following Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant users: manager(s) and the configured/assigned assistant(s) that manage the calls of the manager(s). Only CAR administrators can generate Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant reports. The Cisco Unified Communications Manager Assistant menu allows you to choose all or a subset of managers or assistants by using simple search functionality that is based on partial or complete first or last name. You can generate these reports on demand in either PDF or CSV format and e-mail them. In addition, you can choose the time range and generate either detailed or summary level reports.

The manager reports can include calls that only managers handle for themselves, calls that only assistants handle for managers, and calls that qualify in either case. The summary report for a manager shows the number of calls of each call classification type, the total number of calls, and the total duration of all calls (in seconds) for each manager and/or assistant. The detail report for a manager shows the date, origination time, origination number (calling number), destination (called number), call classification, and duration (in seconds) for each call for each manager and/or assistants, and the cumulative duration total for the manager.

The assistant reports can include calls that only assistants handle for themselves, or calls that only assistants handle for managers, and calls that qualify in either case. The summary report for an assistant shows the number of calls of each type and total of them apart from duration for each manager (and/or assistant). The detail assistant report shows the date, origination time, origination (calling number), destination (called number), call classification, and duration (in seconds) for each call for all the managers (and/or assistant) and the cumulative duration total for the assistant.
