Station Message Detail Recording (SMDR)

Station Message Detail Recording
(SMDR)
SMDR reports may report calls using more than one call record. Depending upon
how SMDR is programmed and how calls are routed, you may need to consult
several SMDR records in order to trace a call that is routed over network trunks.
All network calls are reported according to SMDR programming for reporting
incoming and outgoing calls. For network calls, outgoing call records report the
incoming tandem trunk number in the SMDR field; dialed digits shown on the
report do not reflect any digit manipulation (addition or absorption) performed by
the local system. Uncompleted calls do not generate a SMDR report, except for
calls over loop-start or ground-start trunks, which generate SMDR reports whether
completed or not.
Ensure that the system date and time are set accurately on each system that
carries network calls. When reviewing reports, consider any time zone differences
among networked systems.

Speed Dial

Non-local dial plan numbers can be programmed as speed dial numbers.
System speed dial numbers can only be accessed by local system users.

System Renumbering

A separate numbering plan is provided for non-local dial plan extensions, allowing
system managers to enter the ranges of extensions on remote systems. These
ranges are associated with patterns that in turn allow routing over private tandem
trunks or over PSTN facilities when appropriate. These ranges must be unique
and unambiguous in the local dial plan. Programming remote extension ranges
does not affect the remote system or the extension numbering used within the
remote system. When a system is renumbered to the factory-set default, non-local
dial plan extension ranges are deleted.
NOTE:
Non-local dial plan programming can be used to route an extension's calls
to an outside number. This may be convenient when, for example, an
extension user is working at home and wants to receive calls at a home
telephone number.
