Call History
A call history log records useful information about your business. Use the data to
analyze business patterns, trends, and expenses. After you select the categories to
evaluate, Administrator displays the results in the Call information table. You can
filter and sort using different criteria as many times as you want. For example, view
the VoIP call activity of an employee for the month of May. Then, change the search
parameters, and view how many minutes you spent on the phone with a particular
client. The default view shows all calls for all users on the current day. For a more
complex view, save the history to a CSV file, and use Microsoft Office Excel to
perform further analysis.
To view a specific call history log, do the following.
1. Click the
Phone System
button.

under the heading
