Introduction to message reports
Types of reports
Message reports support both agents and supervisors, and include three types of reports:
Real Time
Historical (non-real time based on closed messages)
Interval (non-real time that may also include open messages)
Available reports
The message reports are as follows:
Objective Report
Closure Code Report
Mailbox Report
Real Time Snap-Shot Report
Message Arrived Daily Report
Message Arrived Monthly Report
Agent Correspondence Report
Writing your own reports for messaging
The messaging software is not designed to allow customizing of reports and, therefore, you are not expected to modify the standard reports provided with the messaging software.
If you have different reporting needs, you may elect to write your own reports, using the schema published by Avaya.
With the exception of agent processing times, all report time values are truncated to minute granularity. If you need a more granular report, you should use the data stored directly and write your own report.
Drill down to single message
You can drill down from a message search or report result listing of multiple messages to a single message through the message tracking number.
For an example of drilling down to information for a specific mailbox, see Real Time Snap-Shot Report Web page.
Report options
The following options appear on every report you generate:

Notification of archive
Message report criteria pages and report result pages contain the following information as a notification that an archive has taken place or is in progress:
The time the last archive started (for example, Archive Started: 2/4/1999 � 23:44:46)
The time the last archive completed (for example, Archive Completed: 2/5/1999 � 7:31:46)
What criteria was used when creating the archive (for example, Archive Criteria: Message Closed, Blocked, or Failed for at least 7 days)
While an archive is in progress, the last completion time is blank. If an archive process fails unexpectedly, such as in the event of a power hit, the time the last archive completed value is never set. A supervisor can then inform the system administrator to rerun the archive utility to complete the archive.
If the database has never been archived, the archive information will be blank.
Access message reports
Reports can only be accessed through a bookmark supplied by your administrator. This bookmark will take you to the Message Care Report and Search page.

Things to know about generating reports
The following list provides useful information about generating reports:
When generating a report, you cannot choose ALL mailboxes and then specify specific mailboxes. You must either select ALL mailboxes or a set of specific mailboxes.
When generating the mailbox report, the number of messages in the Blocked or Failed state for a particular mailbox are shown only if there is at least one Closed message for the mailbox.
