Norstar reports
Use Norstar reports when the you assign the Business Communications Manager Call Detail
Recording output to a printer or Call Accounting package designed to use the Norstar report.
This section describes the Norstar report and explains how to interpret the reports.
Norstar report types
The Call Detail Recording supports four different Norstar report types:
•Standard report
•CLID report
•Real Time report
•All report
Norstar Standard reports
Norstar Standard reports always start with a header line indicating the date (MM/DD/YY) time
(HH/MM/SS), LINE fie ld and STN f i eld. T he report s ha v e at l east one event line showing an event
and time st amp.
Figure 26 sows an example of an Outgoing call in Standard format. Refer to “Sample outgoing
Figure 27 shows an example of an Incoming Call in Standard format. Refer to “Sample incoming
call” on page 45.

Norstar CLID reports
When you select this option, CLID information received from the Business Communications
Manager serve r for an incoming call prints betw een the report header and the event lines . There is
one occurrence of CLID information per call. A CLID field does not appear in the report when
CLID information is not available.
If you need Secondary CLID information, you must configure the Primary Call Detail Recording
to receive CLID information. Y ou must configure The Primary Call Detail Recording to print SL-1
CLID report format or Norstar CLID report format.
Note: Call Detail Recor d in g reports CLID i nformation on ly for lines that are
capable of delivering CLID. You must configure the Business Communications
Manager server to enable delivery of CLID information.
Norstar report field definitions
The first Call Information line after the header line is the CALLING NUMBER. It contains a
maximum of 1 1 characters. When info rm ation is incomplete, one of the following messages
appear:
•If the number is truncated the forward slash symbol ‘/’ precedes the digits received.
•If a partial CLID number is received, ‘x’ follows the digits received.
•If the number field does not receiv e dat a, ‘UNKNOWN’ appears.
The second Call Informatio n line is the NAME. It contains a maximum of 15 char act ers.
•If the name field does not receive data, ‘UNKNOWN’ appears.
Call Detail Recording System Administration Guide

Real Time call records are one line long. All Real Time records begin with an asterisk (*) to
differentiate them from non-Real Time call records. Real Time records are generated only when
CLID Information is available. Real Time records also generate five call states and four Hospitality
types.
Call Detail Recording generates the Norstar Real Time report options using let te r codes, as show n
in Table 10. Refer to “Report options and letter codes” on page 47.

Busy reports
Call Detail Record ing produces two types of busy reports:
•Direct Inward Dial
•Target Line
P0911648 02
Chapter3Call Detail Recording Reports51
Direct Inward Dial (DID) bu sy
A call rings busy when the digital line is set up as a DID line requiring receive digits to route the
call through the Business Communications Manager server via a target line. If all target line
destinatio ns are busy, the unit returns a busy signal i ns tead of routing the call to the prime station
set. Call Detail Recording produces a busy report. Figure 40 shows an example of a busy call to a
set with DID. Refer to “Sample busy call with DID” on page 51.

Target line busy
A call rings busy when a tar ge t li ne is involved with a call, and a second incoming call t ries to use
the same line. Call Detail Recording produces a bus y report, but does not inc lude the target line
information. Figure 41 shows an example of a call to a bus y ta r get l ine. Refe r to “Sample busy call

When an incoming call is unanswered and externally forwarded, Call Detail Recording reports the
call as outgoing. The reports provides the:
•incoming line or extension
•outgoing line
•extension responsible for the external call forward
•reason for the external call forward
•digits dialled
Note: For more information , refer to the Installation and Maintenance Guide that
came with your system.

Norstar Real Time record description
The Real Time record is one line long beginning with an asterisk (*) to differentiate it from othe r
Norstar records. This record contains eight fields:
•date in MMDDYY format
•time in HHMMSS format
•line number associated with the call
•station set nu m b er associated with the call
•CLID number
•CLID name or DNIS number
•call type
•call state
The date field is a fixed length of six digits (MMDDYY). The month, day or year are preceded by
a leading 0 to keep the field length fixed. For example, 010501 is January 5, 2001.
The time field is a fixe d length of six digits (HHMMSS). There are no separators between hour,
minute and second.
The line field shows the call being tracked. The line is fixed at four digits and can have leading
zeros. For example, 0019 is line 19. As the Real Time Hospitality record does not use the third
field it does not contain any charact er s and appears blank.
The station set number field shows the station set associated with the call. Station set numbers
range from two to seven digits. If the number is less than seven digits there are no leading zeros
because this field is not fixed. In the Real Ti m e Hospit ality record this f i eld shows the roo m
number. Room numbers range from one to five digits.
The CLID Information f ield sho ws the call ing number. The number is a maximum of 12 characters
(11 digits maximum and the “/” and “x” c har act er ). There i s always information i n thi s field. If no
number is available, either UNKNOWN or PRIVATE appears in this field. As the Real Time
Hospitality record does not use this field it appears blank.

Call Detail Recording Record Security
The records from Call Detail Recording are sensitiv e in nat ure. Communication among top
executives and external companies, telephone banking passwords, long distant PIN codes, etc. are
some of the examples that require protection from unauthorized access. With the introduction of
network real time access in Cal l De tail Recording , th e System Administrator must setup the
system to protect against unauthorized access.
The default instal lation of Call Detail Recording ena bles the CDR group to ha ve launch permissi on
to the records. This means anyone in the same group has access to the Call Detail Recording
records.
To guard against unauthorized access to Call Detail Recording records, you must add only the
authorized users to t he Call Detai l Recor ding gr oup. In th is con f igur ation , th e NT secu rity pro tects
all records against unauthorized ac cess.
CDR Group User Administration
User groups are created during installation. The System Administrator can add user names to the
CDR group and grant them access to Call Detail Recording records using the Business
Communications Manager Unified Manager. The System Administrator can also modify user

CDR User Management additional information
Call Detail Recording Domain User Management, in the previous section, uses a domain server
network as an example for the launch permission administration. In addition, the Business
Communications Manager base unit must be registered as a member server of the domain.
P0911648 02
Chapter 4 Install CDRClient Application71
The configuration differs for a peer-to-peer network. In this case, the Business Communica tions
Manager base unit is not registered as a member server in the network. This appears in the CDR
Group User Administration, in the previous section.
The group/user a ccount s must e xi st i n th e Busi ness Co mmunic ations Man ager base u nit before the
CDR server launches per m ission administration. The Business Communications Manager base
unit takes re sponsibility to verify if the users hav e the right launch permission.
If the remote PC is a Windows NT
®
workstation, ensure the user account s in the lau nch permissi on
list exist on both the server and the client PC with matching passwords. When the user logs in to
the remote PC using one of the authorized us er accounts, the user has the launch permission to the
Business Communications Manager base unit. Th e System Admin istrator can admi nister local
users from Unified Manager by clicking the Management and UserManager keys, and then the
Configuration menu.
Note: The domain passwords of the users in the launch permission list must be
the same as the passwords in the corresponding Business Communications
Manager base unit user accounts.
