Cisco CDR, CMR & CUBE Report Examples

Start with the operational question you need to answer. This catalog covers all 47 Cisco-focused report templates from the backend report registry — including CDR, CMR call quality, CUBE SIP trunk, and phone registration reports — each with a deterministic CSV, XLSX, and PDF sample you can open before running the report on your own data.

Every template runs ad-hoc in the free Community edition; licensing adds exports, saved reports, and scheduling. Download the free appliance to run any of these against your own CUCM CDR data, or learn how the reports are organized in Report Templates and customized in Report Builder. Realtime phone inventory reporting lives in the Phone Dashboard.

The examples use fixed teaching scenarios so the same report produces the same rows, pages, and file identity every time.

Also see Microsoft Teams report examples.
