The Press8 Telecom Control Panel provides you viewing capability for reports, often in a formatted form, for several items related to system usage, rate plan or invoices. For example, you can get a list of active calls or call-history.
In order to view reports you have to be an administrator.
** The term ‘My Customer’ in the Press8 Control Panel always refers to you unless you are a Press8 Reseller.
To View Reports
- Log in to the Press8 Telecom Control Panel.

- If the page has a button marked “Export as .csv”, click this to download the results shown. Depending on your browser configuration, this may download a file to your computer, or may open the results in a program which can read .csv files such as Microsoft Excel.
The reports available are:
- Active calls
Shows calls in progress when the page is loaded. By default, this shows calls for telephone lines in your own customer.
