Overview

The Phone Bill report produces a fully itemised telephone bill for billing back telephone usage to your clients.  You also get the option to adding a percentage mark-up or surcharge to each phone call. These bills can also include fixed charges for items other than phone calls, such as room rental, internet services and additional sundry items. You can fully customise the style of the report's output to reflect your own brand, including a company logo, for example.


Running the report

Click on the Reports tab and select Phone bill from the left-hand pane. The screen displaying the parameters of the report will appear, where you can configure the entity, period, filters, options and format of the report.


For details about how to configure these parameters, refer to the relevant page(s) in the list below:

The report's results

  • the report's title
  • the date and time that the report was generated
  • the name of the report, if applicable

The Web format is the most interactive of all formats: all column headers are click-sortable and most graphical and tabular elements can be drilled down into, allowing deeper analysis of your results.

The body of the report consists of an itemised call list for each billed user. Each itemised list has the following column headers:

Dialled numberThe telephone number that was dialled
