Introduction to message reports 

Types of reports

Message reports support both agents and supervisors, and include three types of reports:

Available reports

The message reports are as follows:

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:

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If the database has never been archived, the archive information will be blank.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.

Following are the Localized URLs for the Supervisors Reports Page:
