This is sometimes withheld by the person making the call.You may choose to report on calls from a particular CLI or from numbers beginning with a particular CLI. For example, for the telephone number of the remote caller in an incoming call scenario.

This filter accepts the comparison operators ! and * (e.g. You can use the ! symbol to explicitly exclude a CLI from the report's results, and/or the
symbol as a wildcard in digit pattern matching. For example, to exclude calls from Tri-Line,
but include all others, you
would could use
!020726526*). To report on more than one CLI,
user use a comma to separate
the entrieseach entry.
Cost
If you want to add a filter for call costs, type in the cost you wish to defineYou can define a cost filter to include calls above or below specific values by entering your criteria, as shown below. :
This filter allows you to You can specify a range (-) or use comparison operators (cost range by using the symbol; to specify limits, use the comparison operators, >, <, ! and *)and
.
Destination
If you want to filter calls to a specific, known destination, you can type the name of the destination in the field text box provided. This filter accepts the comparison operators ! and * symbols for excluding values and specifying partial matches, respectively.
For example, if you want wanted to exclude all calls to France, you could enter
