Call detail record field descriptions

The following information describes the CDR data that the system collects for each call, and the length of each
field. The information is right adjusted in the CDR record field, unless otherwise indicated. The system displays
the customized field name if the field names for the customized differ from the names of standard records.

Access Code Dialed


Customized field name: code-dial
Length: 3 or 4 digit
This field contains the access code that the user dials to place an outgoing call. The access can be the automatic
route selection (ARS) access code, an Automatic Alternate Routing (AAR) access code, or the access code of a
specific trunk group. This field is also used to record the X.25 Feature Access Code of an outgoing X.25-addressed
call.

Access Code Used


Custom field name: code-used
Length: 3 or 4 digits
This field is used only for outgoing calls when the system uses a trunk group that differs from the access code
that the user dials. This field is not used when a user dials a TAC. For example, your system might use an FAC for
ARS. This field contains the access code of the trunk group that the system uses to route the call. When the
access code that the user dials, and the access code that the systems uses are the same, this field is blank.
If you use ISDN or enhanced formats with TELESEER, LSU, or printer record types, this field contains the access
code of the trunk group, even if the user dials the same access code.
Length: 2 digits
If an attendant participates in a call, this field contains the number of the attendant console.

Account Code
Custom field name: acct-code
Length: 1 to 15 digits
This field is either blank, or contain a number to associate call information with projects or account numbers. For
some formats, a long account code overwrites spaces on the record that are assigned to other fields.

Attendant Console
Custom field name: attd-console
Length: 2 digits
If a user uses an attendant to make a call, the attd-console field displays the console number of the attendant. If
multiple attendants are used, the console number of the last attendant is recorded. For incoming and non
operator-handled calls, this field remains blank.

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 3
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

Authorization Code
Custom field name: auth-code
Length: 4 to 13 digits
This field contains the authorization code that the user used to make the call. The system truncates an
authorization code to 7 digits for formats other than customized formats.
Note that the authorization code for the non-ISDN format and the ISDN local storage init (LSU) format has fewer
than 6 digits. The authorization code for the Enhanced LSU format has 5 digits. The system does not record the
authorization on the 59-character record.

Bandwidth
Length: 2 digits
This field contains the bandwidth of the wide band calls to support H0, H11, H12, and N x 64 kbps data rates. For
Enhanced Expanded, Enhanced Unformatted, and customized record formats, this value in this field is the
number of DSOs of 64-kbps channels that comprise a call.

Bearer Capability Class


Custom field name: bcc
Length: 1 digit
This field contains the bearer capability class (BCC) for ISDN calls. The BCC identifies various capabilities that are
available for a ISDN call. Any one of the following BCCs can appear in this field.
0 - Voice grade data and voice
1 - Mode 1, 56 kbps synchronous data
2 - Mode 2, less than 19.2 kbps synchronous or asynchronous data
3 - Mode 3, 64 kbps data for Link Access Procedure data (LAPD) protocol
4 - Mode 0, 64 kbps data clear
M - Multimedia
W - Wideband
Note:
The Bearer Capability Class field in the CDR records shows the capabilities that are available for a given call. It is
not a report of the capabilities that were used for the call. For intraswitch CDR records, the BCC field system
provides information for wideband calls only.

Calling Number
Custom field name: calling-num
Number of digits, standard: 1 to 10
Number of digits, custom: 1 to 15

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 4
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

For outgoing or intraswitch calls, this field contains the extension of the originating telephone user. For incoming
and tandem calls, this field contains the TAC in standard formats. The fifth digit is the first digit of a 5-digit dialing
plan.
For formats in which the Calling Number field has 7 digits, the field contains the TAC of the incoming call.
For Unformatted records or Expanded records, this field contains the number of the calling party. If the number
of the calling party is unavailable, this field is blank for both the Unformatted and the Expanded record formats.
For an outgoing, or an originating, NCA-TSC CDR record, this field contains the local extension of the noncall-
associated/temporary-signaling connection (NCA-TSC) endpoint. This field is blank for terminating, tandem, or
unsuccessful NCA-TSC CDR records.

Call Type
Custom field name: calltype
Length: 1 digit
This field is only used in the customized format and is used to indicate whether the called party number was
handled by calltype digit analysis or not. If the call was handled by calltype digit analysis, the field is set to a 1,
otherwise it is set to a 0. This field was formerly called logdial.

Calling Number/Incoming TAC


Custom field name: clg-num/in-tac
You can use this field on a customized record to display the calling number, if the calling number is available.
If the calling party number is unavailable, this field contains the incoming TAC.
For outgoing calls, this field contains the calling extension.

Calling Party Category


Custom field name: clg-pty-cat
Length: 2 digits
This field is used only on the customized format. This parameter is associated with R2MFC trunks.

Carriage Return
Custom field name: return
The ASCII carriage return character, followed by a line feed, indicates the end of a call record.

Condition Code
Length: 1 character
The condition code indicates the type of call that this record describes. For example, condition code C identifies
a conference call, and condition code 7 identifies an ARS call.
The table shows the condition codes for most record formats. The condition codes for the 59-character format
differ from the condition codes of the other record types. The codes that apply to 59-character records appear in
parentheses in the table.

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 5
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

Table 1. Condition codes

Condition codes Description

Identifies an intraswitch call, which is a call that originates


0
and terminates on the switch

Identifies an attendant-handled call or an attendant-


1 (A)
assisted call, except conference calls

Identifies an extremely long call or a call with an extremely


high message count TSC. An extremely long call is a call that
lasts for 10 or more hours. An extremely high message count
TSC is 9999 or more messages.
When a call exceeds10 hours, the system creates a call
record with this condition code and a duration of 9 hours, 59
4 (D) minutes, and 1-9 tenths of a minute.
The system creates a similar call record with this condition
code after each succeeding 10-hour period.
When the call terminates, the system creates a final call
record with a different condition code that identifies the
type of call.

Identifies calls where no CDR records are generated because


the CDR (SMDR) processes do not have enough resources
available to generate a record. For example, a CDR resource
6 (E)
shortage could be the CDR buffer space available. The CDR
record that includes this condition code also includes the
time and the duration of the CDR resource outage.

7 (G) Identifies calls that use the AAR or ARS feature.

Identifies calls that are served on a delayed basis by the


8 (H)
Ringback Queuing feature.

Identifies:

• An incoming call
9 (I) • A tandem call
• An incoming NCA-TSC call
• A tandem NCA-TSC call

A Identifies an outgoing call.

B Identifies an adjunct-placed outgoing call.

C (L) Identifies a conference call.

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 6
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

Condition codes Description

For trunk CDR, the system creates a separate call record,


with this condition code, for each incoming or outgoing
trunk that is used during the conference call.
If you disable ITCS and OTCS, the system records the
extension of the originator of the conference call. The
system does not record any other extension.
If you disable ITCS, and you administer the originator of the
conference call to use Intraswitch CDR, the system generates
a call with this condition code whenever the originator of
the conference dials a nontrunk conference participant.
If ITCS is active, and you do not administer the originator of
the conference call to use Intraswitch CDR, the system
generates a call with this condition code whenever the
originator of the conference dials an intraswitch conference
participant.

Identifies a call that the system does not complete because


the following facilities to complete the call are unavailable:

• Outgoing calls

• The trunks are busy, and no queue exists.


• The trunks are busy, and the queue is full.

E (N) • Incoming calls

• The extension is busy.


• The extension is unassigned.

This condition code also identifies an ISDN Call By Call


Service Selection call that is unsuccessful because of an
administered trunk usage allocation plan. Incoming trunk
calls to a busy telephone do not generate a CDR record.

Identifies a call that the system does not complete because


of one of the following conditions:

F • The originator of the calls has insufficient calling privileges.


• An NSF mismatch occurs for an ISDN call.
• An authorization mismatch occurs for a data call.

Identifies a call that the system terminates to a ringing


G
station.

H Notes that the system abandoned a ringing call.

I Identifies a call that the system terminates to a busy station.

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 7
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

Condition codes Description

Identifies an incoming trunk call that is a new connection


that uses Additional Network Feature-Path Replacement
J (ANF-PR) or DCS with Rerouting. For more information on
QSIG and ANF-PR, see Administering Avaya Aura®
Communication Manager, 03-300509.

Identifies an outgoing trunk call that is a new connection


that uses ANF-PR or DCS with Rerouting. For more
K
information on QSIG and ANF-PR, see Administering Avaya
Aura® Communication Manager, 03-300509.

Identifies an outgoing trunk calls that the system


M
disconnects because the call exceeds the allotted time.

Identifies CDR records for calls that meet the following


conditions:

• The Condition Code ‘T’ for Redirected Calls? field on the CDR
T System Parameters screen is set to y.
• The incoming trunk group is direct inward dialing (DID).
• The system automatically redirects an incoming call off of
the server.

Identifies CDR records for all calls in which URI was used as
O
dialed digits.

Identifies CDR records for all calls in which SA8957 PIN code
P
for Private Calls was used.

If the Trunk-group CDR Reports field is set to ring, CDR records the ring time to answer or abandon for incoming
calls that the trunk group originates. CDR also indicates if the incoming destination is busy. This record is
separate from the normal call duration record that is printed for an answered call. This information is indicated
by the condition code.
When a trunk group originates an incoming call with this option set that is terminated to an internal destination,
the call is tracked from the time that ringing feedback is given to the originator. If the call is answered, a CDR
record is printed with condition code G, and the duration reflects the time between the start of ringing and when
the call is answered. If the call is abandoned before being answered, the system prints a record with condition
code H, and the duration reflects the time between the start of ringing and the time that the call was abandoned.
If the destination is busy, a CDR record is printed with condition code I and a duration of 0.

Condition code overrides


If two condition codes apply to the same call, one code overrides the other. The following matrix, the table,
defines the overrides.
To use this table, locate one of the condition codes that you want to compare in the row of condition codes at the
top of the table. Then locate the other condition code that you want to compare in the column of condition code
at the far left of the table. Then locate the intersection of these two condition codes. The condition code at the

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 8
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

intersection of the two condition codes, is the condition code that the system uses. For example, assume that the
system can assign condition 7 and condition code A to the same call. The system uses condition code 7 for the
call.
If the intersection of the two condition codes contains a dash, the two conditions never occur for the same call.

Contact Uniform Resource Identifier


Custom field name: contact-uri
Length: 20 digits

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 9
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

The Contact-URI field contains the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) associated with the calling party on a SIP
call. This field is used only with the customized format. The Contact header contains the IP address of the
machine or telephone that the call originated from. This header remains the same throughout the entire call.

Country From
Custom field name: country-from
Number of digits: 3
The country-from field is a country number, used with the Multinational Locations feature, for currency
conversion. The field length is 3, the same as the length of the Country code for CDR field on the Location
Parameters screen. The country-from field indicates the administered CDR country code of the PBX interface of
the calling party.

Country To
Custom field name: country-to
Number of digits: 3
The country-to field is a country number, used with the Multinational Locations feature, for currency conversion.
The field length is 3, the same as the length of the Country code for CDR field on the Location Parameters screen.
The country-to field indicates the administered CDR country code of the PBX interface of the called party.
Note:
If the Multinational Locations feature is turned off in the license file, the key words country-from and country-to
are invalid.

Date
You can include the date in customized CDR records only. The format of the date is based on the value of the CDR
Date Format field on the CDR System Parameters screen.

Dialed Number
Custom field name: dialed-num
Length: 23 digits
For an outgoing call, this field contains the number that the system user dials. For an incoming call, this field
contains the extension of the system user that is called. If a Dialed Number Identification System (DNIS) exists,
the field contains the implied extension for an incoming call. If the originator of the call dials more than eighteen
digits, the system truncates the number or the extension to 18 digits. The system truncates the least significant
digits, starting at the right. For example, if the originator of the call dials the number 111111111111111111852,
the system truncates the digits 852.

• CDR PrivacyIf CDR Privacy is active for the calling number, and this CDR record is for an outgoing call, the
system modifies and records the number that the user dials according to the following procedure:

• The system truncates the numbers that the user dials to 18 digits
• The system replaces some of the digits with blanks to ensure the privacy of the call.

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 10
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

• NCA-TSC or tandem NCA-TSC outgoing callsFor outgoing NCA-TSC or tandem NCA-TSC calls, this field contains
the digits that the user dials, and that the system uses to establish a route to the server. The field contains the
local extension that is used as the NCA-TSC endpoint when the extension is for a terminating NCA-TSC. For an
unsuccessful NCA-TSC outgoing call, this field is blank. The field can contain a pound sign (#) or the letter E for
either ARS calls or TAC calls when:
• A user dials a pound sign (#) at the end of a string of digits
• An outgoing call exceeds the interdigit-timeout interval that is in the ARS Analysis table
• A user makes a TAC call, which then routes through Look Ahead Interflow (LAI). For example, a successful LAI to
<TAC> 1001, where 1001 is the remote VDN extension, yields 1001E or 1001# in the Dialed Number field. The
vector processing software uses the pound sign (#) or E to indicate the end of the string of digits that the user
dials.You administer the CDR System Parameter screen so the pound sign (#) or the letter E need not be the last
digit of the CDR record.

Duration
Custom field name: duration or sec-dur
Length: 4 digits
This field contains the duration of the call, which the system records in hours (0 to 9), minutes (00 to 59), and
tenths of minutes (0 to 9). The system rounds the duration of the call down in 6-second increments. For example,
the system records the duration of a 5-second call as a duration of zero. If this field contains the value 9999, the
call was in progress when a time change was made in the switch.
You can use the customized record format to report the duration of the call in hours, minutes, and seconds.

end-date(4d)
Length: 8 digits
This field is associated with Special Application SA8201. Go to the Avaya Support website at http://
support.avaya.com for current documentation, product notices, and knowledge articles related to Special
Application features.

Feature Flag
Custom field name: feat-flag
Length: 1 digit
The feature flag indicates whether a call received network answer supervision, and whether the call was
interworked in the network. The duration of the call starts when the system receives the network answer.
You can administer the Feature flag field on the CDR System Parameters screen to reflect whether the network
reported an outgoing ISDN call as interworked.

• The number 0 in this field indicates either a voice call without network answer supervision or a call for which
NCA-TSC is not established.
• The number 1 in this field indicates a data call without network answer supervision.
• The number 2 in this field indicates a voice call with network answer supervision, but interworked.

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 11
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

• The number 3 in this field indicates a data call with network answer supervision, but interworked.
• The number 4 in this field indicates a voice call with network answer supervision.
• The number 5 in this field indicates a data call with network answer supervision. The time of the answer and the
duration of the call are accurate if the feature flag indicates that the call received network answer supervision.
The time of the answer and the duration of the call can be inaccurate, if the call does not receive network
answer supervision, or the call receives answer supervision but is interworked with non-ISDN trunks. Calls are
considered data calls if the calls use a conversion resource, such as a modem, and the calls either originate or
terminate on a data module.

Format Code
Length: 2 digits
This field contains two values:

• 00 indicates no PPM.
• 03 indicates a PPM count in the digits record.

FRL
Length: 1 digit
Facilities restriction levels (FRLs) are numbered 0 through 7, are associated with the AAR and the ARS features,
and define calling privileges. If the call is an:

• Outgoing call, and an authorization code is not used to make the call, this field contains the FRL of the
originating user FRL.
• Outgoing call, and an authorization code is used to make the call, this field contains the FRL that is associated
with the authorization code that the user dials.
• Incoming or a tandem call, this field contains the FRL that is assigned to the incoming trunk group.
• Incoming tandem tie trunk call, this field contains either the FRL that is assigned to the tandem tie trunk or the
TCM sent with the tandem tie trunk call. If an FRL was used to complete the call, the field contains the FRL. If a
TCM was used to complete the call, the field contains the TCM. With ISDN calls, this field always contains the
TCM, if the TCM was received.You can administer CDR so that this field contains disconnect information instead
of the FRL. If you administer CDR so this field contains disconnect information for trunk CDR, the system
records the information shown in the table.

1 The calling participant dropped the call first.

2 The dialed participant dropped the call first.

From-URI
Length: 20 digits
The From-URI field contains the URI associated with the calling party on a SIP call. This field is used only with the
customized format. The From header contains the caller ID information. This header can contain ID information
that the calling party wants the header to contain. The ID information might or might not be accurate and
therefore is not considered to be a reliable source of information.
Note:
To have a more consistent and repeatable information in the CDR records, use the Contact-URI field instead of
the From-URI field.

Incoming Circuit Identification


Custom field name: in-crt-id
Length: 3 digits
This field contains the member number of a trunk within a trunk group that is used for an incoming call. For
outgoing calls, this field is blank. Tandem calls contain both incoming and outgoing circuit ID numbers.
The format of this field varies from record to record. For printer, TELESEER, and 59-character formats, the
numbers are inverted on the record. For example, the system displays the circuit ID 123 as 231 (tens, units,
hundreds). If you want to change the order to hundreds, tens, units format, for example, 123, use the Modified
Circuit ID Display field on the CDR System Parameters screen.
From Communication Manager Release 8.0 onwards, maximum trunk capacity is increased to 9999. However, for
the fixed CDR formats such as TELESEER, unformatted, and 59-character, there is a limitation of the field length
to three digits only. So this field will always report lower three digits only for fixed CDR format. If you want all the
four digits, then you must use custom format. The maximum trunk capacity prior to Communication Manager
Release 8.0 is 255.

Incoming TAC
Custom field name: in-trk-code
Length: 4 digits
This field contains the access code of the incoming trunk group.

INS
Length: 3 digits
This field specifies the ISDN Network Service (INS) that is requested for a call. This field applies only to ISDN calls.
Each network specific facility has a corresponding INS value, shown in the table.
The system displays this field also as ISDN NSV (network service value).

ISDN CC
The call charge that the ISDN advice of charge function supplies.

ISDN Call Charge/Periodic Pulse Metering


Custom field name: isdn-cc/ppm
Length: 11 digits
This field is used only on the customized format.

ISDN NSV
See INS.

IXC Code
The length for non-ISDN formats: 1 digit hexadecimal
Interexchange Carrier (IXC) codes,1-F hexadecimal, indicate the carrier used on the call. This information is sent
to the CDR output device in ASCII code as a hexadecimal representation, for example, ASCII F equals 15 that is.
Users must dial an IXC access number to access a specific common carrier for a call. In the US, this number is in
the form 10XXX, 950 - 1XXX, or any 8 to 11 digit number. The IXC access numbers that are applicable at a given
location are associated with an IXC code on the Inter-Exchange Carrier Codes screen.
When ARS is used, and a route pattern inserts one of the administered IXC codes, the report contains the
associated IXC code. If no IXC access number is used, or the carrier is selected at the central office (CO), the report
contains a zero.
Length for ISDN formats: 3 or 4 digits
With an ISDN record format, this 3-digit or 4-digit field identifies the actual IXC used on an ISDN call. This
information is determined from the route pattern administration. For AAR and ARS calls, the 3-digit IXC value is
administered in the route pattern for all ISDN calls. If a user dials an IXC code with a 10XXX format as
administered on the Inter-Exchange Carrier Codes screen, the CDR record contains only the last 3 digits (4 digits
or Enhanced). If a user dials a 7-digit IXC code, this field contains a zero.

Line Feed
Length: 1 character
The ASCII line feed character comes after a carriage return to terminate CDR records.

Location From
Custom field name: location-from
Number of digits: 3

June 8, 2021 Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation 15
Avaya Aura® Communication Manager Feature Description and Implementation

The location-from field is a location number, used with the Multinational Locations feature, for record sorting.
The field length is 3, the same as the length of the location field on the cabinet, media gateway, remote office,
and ip-network region screens. The location-from field indicates the location code of the PBX interface of the
calling party.

Location To
Custom field name: location-to
Number of digits: 3
The location-to field is a location number, used with the Multinational Locations feature, for record sorting. The
field length is 3, the same as the length of the location field on the Cabinet, Media Gateway, Remote Office, and
IP Network Region screens. The location-to field indicates the location code of the PBX interface of the called
party.
Note:
If the Multinational Locations feature is turned off in the license file, the key words location-from and location-to
are invalid.

MA-UUI
Length: 1 digit
Message Associated User-to-User Signaling shows the number of ISDN messages that contain user data that are
sent on an outgoing call. This field contains a number from 0 to 9.

Node Number
Custom field name: node-num
Length: 2 digits
This field identifies the DCS node number of a switch within a DCS arrangement. This number is the local ID,
which is the same as the node number on the Dial Plan screen.

Null
Length: 1 character
The Null character, usually in triplets, is used to terminate and divide CDR Records, when a receiving adjunct
needs a record divider or terminator.

Outgoing Circuit Identification


Custom field name: out-crt-id
Length: 3 digits
For outgoing calls, this field contains the member number of the trunk within a trunk group that is used on the
call. This field is blank for incoming calls. Tandem calls include both incoming and outgoing circuit ID numbers.
For outgoing and tandem NCA-TSCs, this field contains the signaling group that is used to carry the NCA-TSC.
The format of this field varies from record to record. For printer, TELESEER and 59-character formats, and the
ISDN and Enhanced forms of those records, the numbers are inverted on the record. For example, the system

displays the circuit ID 123 as 231 (tens, units, hundreds). If you want to change the order to hundreds, tens, units
format, for example, 123, use the Modified Circuit ID Display field on the CDR System Parameters screen.
From Communication Manager Release 8.0 onwards, maximum trunk capacity is increased to 9999. However, for
the fixed CDR formats such as TELESEER, unformatted, and 59-character, there is a limitation of the field length
to three digits only. So this field will always report lower three digits only for fixed CDR format. If you want all the
four digits, then you must use custom format. The maximum trunk capacity prior to Communication Manager
Release 8.0 is 255.
