M4 Active Calls
Description
In the Quick Stats on the start window it is possible to see the Active Calls. These are the Calls that are in the system at the moment.
Using the Admin menu Active Calls can be found at REPORTS -> Active Calls.
By clicking on the menu link or on the Active Calls section in the Quick Stats, you will be forwarded to the Active Calls page.
In this window all Active Calls are presented in more detail, such as Start time, Duration, Source, Destination. Table data has links to Users, Servers or Devices. Also, each Call is indicated as Answered or Ringing.
NOTE: In order to see the correct duration on Multi-Server systems, the time should be synchronized on all of the Servers.
The Active Calls window also provides a sophisticated search filter. It can by expanded by clicking on the REFINE RESULTS button. You can fill the search fields with intended values and click the REFINE button. The Active Calls table will readjust and show only the Calls which satisfy the search filter.
In addition, it is possible to reset the statistic by clicking the RESET ACTIVE CALLS INFORMATION button. As the text next to it says, this action will not affect your Calls in any way.
Active Calls settings
On the system settings window (MAINTENANCE -> Settings) in the ACTIVE CALLS section several settings can be adjusted:
- How many maximum Active Calls to show in GUI. Determines how many Active Calls should be displayed in the Active Calls window. If there are more Calls than this setting allows, Active Calls table will not show any of them, instead, the Too much calls to show warning will appear.
- Active Calls refresh interval. Determines how often (in seconds) the Active Calls information is refreshed.
- Show Active Calls for Users. Allows Users to see their Active Calls.

Hangup an Active Call
To hang up an Active Call, click the 
(delete) icon next to it.
The system will try to hang the Call up. If the Call is still visible, it means that Asterisk can't hang up the Call. It has stuck. Stuck Calls are cleared every two hours. There's no need to do anything further.
Active Calls for Users
After having enabled the Show Active Calls for Users setting, Users can access their Active Calls statistics. It can be done by opening the CALLS -> Active Calls window from the User personal menu.
