<h2>Filter the results of the report</h2>

<p>You have already selected the report that you want to configure and the pop-up 
window that appears allows you to set the parameters of the report 
wizard. Click on the <span class="button">Next</span> button at the bottom right of 
the window, until you reach the <span class="reference">Filter the results of the

only specific calls appear in your report.</p>
