About this guide

This guide tells a System Administrator how to configure the Call Detail Recording (CDR) application, generate reports, and install and use the CDR Pull Client and CDR Livestream.

System Administrator role

The System Administrator performs the initial and ongoing administration tasks. Your tasks include:

•administering CDR

•determining Account codes used as references for tracking telephone calls

•interpreting reports

Warning: SECURITY ALERT: CDR records the date and time of calls, digits dialed, incoming call information and time elapsed. This can include sensitive and personal information such as telephone banking numbers, credit card numbers, and personal identification numbers. Digits dialed are not maintained as confidential.

As System Administrator, it is solely your responsibility to advise users that their telephone dialing information can be monitored and recorded.

Further, LAN-based access to call records (passive or real-time) demands a greater emphasis on call record security. Limitations and security arrangements can vary depending on the network environment and how a customer administers and limits access to call records. Consult with the appropriate members of your organization about the proper safeguards.

Report formats and types

Call Detail Recording can generate Norstar and SL-1 report types. SL-1 offers two report formats: Standard and CLID. Norstar offers four report formats: Standard, CLID, Real-time, and All.

Note: The default report format is Norstar and the default report type is All.

SL-1 reports

Use the SL-1 report format when you are supplying the CDR output to legacy commercial call accounting packages or equipment.

This report format supports recording Standard report type as well as the Calling Line Identification (CLID) report type.

The SL-1 CLID report prints the CLID information only if the information is delivered. Otherwise, it records the call in SL-1 Standard report type.

The SL-1 report format does not support the recording of Bearer Capability and DDI Busy reports.

Note: For more information about SL-1 reports, see “SL-1 reports” on page 41.

To assign the SL-1 report type

From the Report Options page, you can assign the SL-1 report type as Standard or CLID.

1On the Task Navigation Panel, click the Configuration tab. The Configuration folders appear.

2Select the Telephony folder and click the Call Detail Recording task.

The Call Detail Recording panel appears with the Report Options tab displayed.

3From the Format drop-down list, select SL-1.

4From the Report Type drop-down list, select Standard or CLID.

Note: CDR reports only the CLID information for lines that are capable of delivering CLID. Calls on lines that are non-CLID capable are reported in SL-1 Standard report format.

Norstar reports

Use the Norstar report format for more detailed call reports.

Note: For more information about Norstar reports, see “Norstar reports” on page 45.

Report Filter	Description

Filter type	All reports all incoming and outgoing calls.
	Outgoing reports only outgoing calls (no incoming calls).
	Prefix reports calls matching the predetermined long distance digit strings.
	The purpose of the Prefix filter is to report only long distance calls, calls to certain
	area codes, or calls to specific numbers. If you select the Prefix Report filter, you
	must also specify the prefix digits.
	If the first digits dialed match one or more of the programmable prefix strings, the call
	is reported; otherwise the call is not reported. You can have a maximum of eight
	prefix strings assigned at one time. The maximum length for each prefix string is
	eight digits.
	Note: The Prefix filter defaults are 0, 1, 90, 91, 411 and 9411. Invalid Password
	attempts are reported regardless of the Report Filter selected.
	Account code reports only calls that have account codes associated with them.

Feature code F9	See “Creating the Feature Code”.

Minimum call	This filter determines which calls are included in the CDR. Calls shorter than the
duration	minimum call duration are not logged. The default setting is 2 seconds and the range
	is 0 - 30 seconds.

Hospitality records	This filter represents four states of room occupancy: vacant, basic, mid and full.
	Room number lengths can be 1 - 5 digits.

Creating the Feature Code

The purpose of the feature code is to allow a user to enter an account code when on a call. The account code that is entered is registered and recorded in the BCM CDR record for that call.

The default feature code in BCM is 900. If 900 is being used for another application, you can choose another code to represent CDR. The feature code you designate can be any unused number between 900 and 999. You designate the feature code in Business Element Manager.

To designate the feature code

2Click the Telephony folder and click the Call Detail Recording task.

The Call Detail Recording panel appears with the Report Options tab displayed.

3In the Feature Code field, enter a number between 00 and 99. The first digit (9) is provided. Callers can now enter the Feature Code and then enter the appropriate Account Codes.

NN40020-605

Chapter 2 Configuring Call Detail Recording 19

Account Codes

With Account Codes you can track telephone calls from your company to different clients or for telephone activities. For example, a caller contacting a billable client can enter an account code each time they call that client.

Callers can enter account codes for any incoming or outgoing calls. Callers enter the feature code (F9--) followed by the account code.

Callers can enter an account code any time during an active call. They cannot enter an Account Code when a call is on hold or when a configuration session is in progress.

Account Code list

Account Codes have a maximum of 12 digits but cannot contain symbols such as (*) or (#). Table 2 is an example of an Account Code list.

Note: Remember to provide your colleagues with the Feature Code and the Account Code list. Your Account Code list is not stored on the BCM. The BCM does not check that account code is valid.

Account code	Description

11127	Pat (manager)

37	Field Support

239	Liza (Sales)

45	Roger (Service)

1552	Monique (Shipping)

100	Long distance

Configuring the Prefix Filter

With the Prefix Filter, you can select whether you monitor and report all long-distance calls, only calls to certain area codes, or calls to specific numbers.

If the first digits a caller dials match one or more of the prefixes you have defined, the call is reported. Otherwise the call is not reported. You can have a maximum of eight prefix strings assigned at one time. The maximum length for each prefix string is eight digits. The Prefix filter default settings are 0, 1, 90, 91, 411 and 9411.

Table 3 Report contents

Include call charge info	Yes/No
	Supports charges on calls. This parameter is market-specific. Do not
	change the default unless the trunk supports this feature.

Find Me/Follow Me info	Yes/No
	Shows information about Find Me/Follow Me calls. For more information,
	see Nortel Business Communications Manager Find Me/Follow Me
	Adminstration.

Use answer supervision	Yes/No
	Identifies the telephone number answering outgoing calls. This parameter is
	market-specific. Do not change the default unless the trunk supports this
	feature.

Display connection character	Enable/Disable
	Normally, CDR reports all the digits the user dialed to connect a call. The
	digits can include digits responding to prompts from an Auto-attendant,
	extension transfer or voice mail service. To distinguish between digits dialed
	to connect the call and digits dialed after the call is connected, the system
	inserts an “!” between the two sets of digits. (For Norstar report format only.)
	You can enable or disable the display connection character parameter.

Suppress digits after connect	Enable/Disable
Maximum digits after connect	By default, CDR stores all digits dialed, even after the call has been
	answered. This includes any personal information dialed, such as account
	numbers, credit card numbers or PINs. You can use the Digit Suppression
	feature to stop CDR from storing digits after the call has been answered.
	To configure the Suppress digits feature, use the Suppress digits after
	connect and Maximum digits after connect options. With Suppress digits
	after connect you can enable or disable this feature. With Maximum digits
	after connect you specify the maximum number of digits CDR stores.
	How the Suppress digits operates:
	• If Suppress digits after connect is disabled
	CDR records all of the digits dialed.
	Line Supervision and the Maximum digits after connect have no affect if
	Suppress digits is disabled.
	• If Suppress digits after connect is enabled and Line Supervision is
	available on the line used
	CDR records the telephone number dialed, but stops recording when
	Line Supervision indicates the call is answered.
	The Maximum digits after connect option has no affect if Line
	Supervision is available on the line used.
	• If Suppress Digits after connect is enabled and Line Supervision is
	not available on the line used
	CDR records the digits dialed until it reaches the number entered in the
	Maximum digits after connect box. After this number of digits is
	recorded, CDR stops recording digits.
	In the Maximum digits after connect box, enter the maximum number of
	digits that CDR stores, from 3 to 24. The default is 11.

Caution: Some of the Report Options are market-specific. If the parameter value does not match the trunk property, CDR can produce incorrect reports. Changing the parameters can affect some Suppress Digit parameters. If you use a Call Accounting package to process reports, consult your software vendor before you make any changes.
