<h2>Introduction</h2>

<p>This is the most flexible (and often daunting) report.  For those who feel
they want more information than is provided in the in-built reports,
you can specify exactly what search terms you want to look for,
including new additions such as CLI (Calling Line Identification) and
LCR (Least Cost Routed) calls.</p>

<h2>Creating the Report</h2>

<p>When you have chosen a reporting period, and are happy with your selections, click on the <span class="button">Run Now</span> button.</p>

<h2>The results</h2>

<p>Because of the number of selection parameters available on Custom Reports,
the results can vary. The example below show outgoing calls to mobile
during a specific time period. Because outgoing calls only was
selected, there are no CLI's showing.</p>

<img class="screenshot naked" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_professional/custom_report_3.png" alt="Custom Report" />

<p>The header contains the date and time the report was generated, the
period the report covers, and an indicator for each of the report's
criteria that you selected, if any.</p>

<p>The report consists of a single table housing all of the calls that
matched your selection criteria.  Each column of the table is
described here:</p>

<table class="confluenceTable">
