      • The Actual Calls and Unanswered totals the actual calls attempted.
      • The Human, Machine, Fax, and Unknown totals the calls made. If you click on the link you will see a list of the calls and a message of actual calls and how many recipients were contacted. The number of recipients will be larger because of duplicate phone numbers. If you have two people with the same phone number only one call will be made but, two people are considered being contacted.
