German term

Gesamtdatei

German to English Tech/Engineering Computers (general)
Correct technical term? Context is a statistical program collecting statistics about call traffic for voice portal system.
Mit Hilfe des Programs sind zwei verschiedene Abläufe der Statistikauswertung möglich. Bei der ersten Variant werden nur Statistikdaten zu einer Gesamtdatei zusammengefasst.
The 2nd variant provides an Excel file "zur graphischen Auswertung".
Compound file? My TM says total file but I am not convinced.

summary file

... is what I would use in this case.

a 'compound file' is already a specialised term and it is unlikely that it applies here:

Erläuterung des Begriffs Compound File

(COM) Ein sogenanntes Compound File ist eine Datei, die eine Sammlung von Storages und Streams enthält. Ein Compound File besteht aus einem Storage, der beliebig viele Sub-Storages enthalten kann. Jedes Storage kann aus Streams und weiteren Sub-Storages bestehen. Ein Compound File ist daher vergleichbar mit einem Dateisystem: Storages sind Verzeichnisse, Streams sind Dateien.

Although I don't like the "total file" either, I'd recommend to check with the client before changing it, if your TM came from them.

entire file

Entire or complete are both feasible depends on how you want to build your sentence. It would merely be a personall preference since both words mean the same.
