Report Content
Speech Server provides the following five RDL reports.
Sessions Report (SessionReportsView.rdl)
Use the Sessions report to see general information about the frequency and characteristics of calls to a Speech Server application.
Sessions Filters
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
Time of session |
Limit the query to a period in which the call was answered. |
Application |
Query only the data associated with a specific application name. |
ANI |
Query only the data associated with calls that have caller ID matching the complete or partial value in this field. |
Languages |
Query only the set of sessions matching the selected language. |

Tasks Report (TaskReportsView.rdl)
Use the Task Reports view to see summary information about tasks in calls to a Speech Server application. In Speech Server, a task is a module defined by the author using the SpeechSequenceActivity class. The application can set the completion status of this activity to represent the accomplishment of a user goal. Use Task reports to determine the success of the voice user interface in terms of user task completion rates.
Tasks Filters
Tasks filters include the filters provided for the Sessions report, described earlier in this topic, plus the filters in the following table.
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
Task Name |
Limit the query to tasks with a specific name. |
Task Status |
Limit the query to tasks with a specific task completion status. The available statuses include all those listed in the database, not just the set returned by the current filters. |
Task Volume Report

Task Ending Report

Task Shape Report

Turns Report (TurnReportsView.rdl)
Use the Turns report to see general turn usage statistics. A turn is an interaction between the system and a user and maps to a QuestionAnswerActivity, StatementActivity, or RecordAudioActivity activity. Typically, the interaction is a combination of prompt output and user input. Use turn data for detailed analysis of tuning issues identified in session and task views.
Turn Overview Filters
Turn Overview filters are identical to the filters provided for the Tasks report, plus a Turn Name filter, which limits the query to the data set of a particular turn name. Multiple selections are possible, resulting in an OR query.
