CDR

From Taridium

Jump to: navigation, search

A CDR or call detail record is a record representing a unit of traffic handled by ipbx. All calls without exception are recorded in the CDR database. Usually, but not necessarily this database is local to the PBX. Some calls will yield multiple CDR entries, for example when call is forwarded/transferred. CDR data, can optionally be stored in a separate database on the system or on a remote host depending on configuration.

Viewing Records

To see your CDR records, click on DiagnosticsCDR Viewer. The initial view will be limited to 100 records. You can change the filter settings by modifying your search criteria and adjusting the number of returned records. Blue shaded columns also allow you to view additional information, by moving your mouse pointer over it. This includes: Detailed Date & Time information, Source Channel, Destination Channel, Bill Duration, Application Data and User Field.

Clicking on the Details.png icon will display the complete record as stored in the database. If available, the Pushpin.gif icon besides the caller ID field will also allow you to display a map of the number found.

The relevant database name is ipbx (unless CDR records are stored separately) and the table name is cdr. For a description of columns/fields refer to the Exporting all records section.
