The System Date feature allows you to set the month, day, and year that appear
on MLX display telephones and on Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR)
reports.
NOTES:
■
If you plan to use the SMDR feature, make sure the current date is set.s
■
In Release 6.0 and later systems, where a MERLIN LEGEND
Communications System switch is networked in a private network with
one or more MERLIN LEGEND Communications System switches or
with one or more DEFINITY
®
Communications Systems, SMDR reports
may report outgoing calls using more than one call record (for example,
for tandem calls), depending upon how SMDR is programmed and how
calls are routed. Therefore, if SMDR is reporting outgoing calls and
users are employing private network lines to make these calls, ensure
that the system date and time are set accurately on each system that
carries these calls. As you examine call reports, you may need to be
aware of time zone differences among networked system locations.
