# Kiosk Reporting

Activity from your kiosks is captured in three places: the **Reports** page, through a dedicated turnout report; the **Election Log**, which records each kiosk vote and the kiosk it came from; and the **Account Log**, which records kiosk management events such as creation and activation.

## Turnout By Kiosk Report

The **Turnout By Kiosk** report is a CSV download available on the **Reports** page to any user with access to Reports. It breaks down kiosk turnout by individual kiosk.

The report is comma-delimited and has three columns:

- **Kiosk Name**: the name of the kiosk.
- **Votes**: the number of votes cast at that kiosk.
- **Votes (%)**: that kiosk's share of all kiosk votes, expressed as a percentage.

A few things to keep in mind when reading this report:

- The report counts kiosk votes only. Remote (online) votes are not included.
- The percentages are calculated across the total number of kiosk votes only. They represent each kiosk's share of in-person voting, not a share of overall election turnout.
- Because deleting a kiosk does not remove votes already recorded, a deleted kiosk's name can still appear in this report for votes cast while it existed.

## Kiosk Votes in the Election Log

Votes cast at a kiosk are recorded in the **Election Log** as **Kiosk vote** activities, alongside the other activity types (such as ballot opened, ballot filled, and internet vote). See [Checking the Election Log](/v1/docs/election-log) for more information.

### In the Election Manager

On the Election Log page, hover over the **i** icon in the Activity column to see which kiosk recorded a given activity.

### In the CSV Export

The Election Log CSV export includes a **Data** column. For each Kiosk vote activity, this column shows the name of the kiosk that recorded the vote, so you can trace in-person votes to specific devices when reviewing the exported log.

## Kiosk Management Events in the Account Log

While the Election Log records the votes cast at kiosks, the management of kiosks is recorded separately in the **Account Log**, found under **Settings**. The Account Log is available to Super Users and to users with the **Account Log** permission.

Four kiosk management events are recorded, under the following labels:

- Kiosk created
- Kiosk deleted
- Kiosk activated
- Kiosk deactivated

For each event, the **Username** column shows the user who performed it, so you can see who created, activated, deactivated, or deleted a given kiosk, and when.

### In the Election Manager

On the Account Log page, hover over the **i** icon in the Activity column to see which kiosk was affected by a given activity.

### In the CSV Export

The Account Log CSV export includes a **Data** column, similar to the Election Log. For each kiosk management event, this column shows the name of the kiosk the event refers to.

The Account Log is the place to look when reconciling who managed kiosks during an event, for example to confirm a kiosk was properly deactivated from the Election Manager at the end of a voting day.
