How do you want the bill to look?

...

If no custom changes were made to the footer and header, the report will show the billing entity on the top-left corner of the screen and your company logo on the top-right. The header of the report will show the billing period including dates and times, followed by the billing entity. If you have assigned a friendly name to the report, this will show in its header as well in the header.

The body of the report will display a summary of each billing entity or, for an itemised bill, each individual call made by the billing entity. If the billing entity includes more than one extension, the bill is split up for each one, enabling you to see at-a-glance which extension made which calls.
