Extension Call Accounting Report

Extension Call Accounting report provides a quick overview of the bills for outbound calls made by extensions via specific trunks, and can be broken down to specific extensions, groups of extensions, or organizations of extensions. This topic describes how to access the report and explains the key metrics in detail.

      Note: To enhance system performance, Yeastar has upgraded the CDR module in version 83.21.0.117 with a new data structure for clearer display and more comprehensive call details. The system gradually deletes old CDRs and related call report data according to the CDR Auto Cleanup setting. Before old call report data are cleaned up, new and historical data are managed separately - the Default Reports tab for new data and the Call Reports(Legacy) tab for historical data.

      This topic describes how to access new call report data generated after upgrading to version 83.21.0.117 or later. To access historical data, click Call Reports(Legacy) tab to proceed.
