Managers can create custom reports to view activities within CallProof. These can be mailed on a schedule to anyone.

Custom Reports allow managers to create reusable, scheduled CSV reports that automatically collect CallProof activity data and email it to selected recipients.
 +
Reports can include event forms, event counts, recorded calls, account assignments, markets, and upcoming tasks. Reports can run automatically on a weekly or monthly schedule or be executed manually at any time.

== Custom Reports List ==
 +
Give managers one screen to see every automated report the company uses — names, last delivery, and quick actions. Instead of exporting data by hand each week, you maintain report “recipes” here that run on their own and land in email (and Last Run links). This is the control center for recurring operational reporting.
  
The Report Name column shows the name and can be clicked to edit the custom report.

Break report output by market/territory instead of one company total. Regional managers get slices that match how accounts and reps are organized geographically or structurally.
Next, create the actual report.  Select what needs to be reported, who receives it, and when.  This can be edited at any time from the Custom Reports index screen.

When grouping by market, choose which markets appear. Enabling group-by-market also affects rep selection (included sales reps are cleared in that flow) so the report stays market-scoped.

Custom Reports

Custom Reports allow managers to create reusable, scheduled CSV reports that automatically collect CallProof activity data and email it to selected recipients. Reports can include event forms, event counts, recorded calls, account assignments, markets, and upcoming tasks. Reports can run automatically on a weekly or monthly schedule or be executed manually at any time.
