 SDKs **MAY** keep track of discarded events in the transport. Once SDKs implement the [telemetry processor](/sdk/telemetry/telemetry-processor/), they **SHOULD** implement client reports tracking outside the transport, since data can be dropped in multiple places throughout the SDK. The [telemetry scheduler](/sdk/telemetry/telemetry-processor/#telemetry-scheduler) is then responsible for passing aggregated client reports to the transport. The telemetry scheduler still **MUST** adhere to the requirements above.
