Request for a new combined report containing all the
KPI related to improving CQI (CL, UL Noise Rise,
Overshooting index) along with Bad CQI
distribution.
3G leakage

KPI needs clarification in terms of voice or data or both

3G leakage is market level, daily KPI. It would be good to have cell
level report on weekly level as well.
Difference between Sheet2 and Sheet3 is not clear

Aggregation period for establishing the acceptance KPI

Cable loss report is daily level. It would be good to have
it at weekly level as well
In TPIM Custom NSN HSPA Report, HSDPA Traffic
Volume is not showing up
