Traffic Types

In the Traffic types view, you manage the traffic types that occur in your organization. The traffic types are connected to log cases through prefixes or other traffic properties. For reporting purposes, there is also functionality to declare if the traffic type is telephony calls, SMS, MMS or data traffic. All traffic types are grouped into traffic categories.

Note: When importing mobile CDR data, some of the imports ask if you want the import to create new traffic types if needed. By default, these new traffic types will be connected to the traffic category you chose when importing. You may when the import is done check if you need to move any traffic type to another category where it better belongs.
