Managing CDRs
and Super CDRs
Call Detail Records (CDRs) are generated by the call processor and stored
on the Accounting service in an XML file format. A Super CDR consists of
one or more individual CDRs that have been merged into one XML file. A
Super CDR may have part or all of the fields listed in an individual CDR
depending on what information was needed during a call. CDRs can be
sent to the VCX Call Reports application (see the
VCX Administration
Guide ). This application allows you to view, export, and create reports
based on retrieved CDRs.
Understanding CDR
Fields
Each CDR and Super CDR XML file consists of HTML tags that are used to
identify specific variables. See
Table 7 for the names of the variables
associated with the HTML tags and the CDR field descriptions and values.
