Account Summary Report 1 (Enhanced Report)

Video: The account summary report provides a detailed accounting on a device-by-device basis. This report provides the most detail with respect to charges. Found within this report are the billable activities for each individual device within each zone it accessed during the month. Each row is a unique device-zone combination; that is, the billable activity for a single device may be detailed in multiple rows depending on the breadth of its activity defined by zones.

You may want to leverage this report to ascertain charges from particular devices. For example, a device may show a concentration of charges within a specific geographic zone for which its assigned rate plan is not particularly designed to accommodate whereas another rate plan may be a better fit.

This report provides a summary of traffic during the billing period for each Device.
