Section 3: Features
SMDR provides the following options:
Abandoned Call Reporting
The SMDR report includes calls that rang into the system but were unanswered (i.e., abandoned).
SMDR can include all abandoned calls or only those abandoned calls that rang longer than the speci-
fied duration. The Abandoned Call Report helps you keep track of lost business.
Blocked Call Reporting
When Toll Restriction blocks a call, you can have SMDR print the blocked call information. Or, you
can have SMDR exclude these types of calls. With Blocked Call Reporting, you can better customize
Toll Restriction for the site's application.
Customized Date Format
The SMDR header can show the report date in one of three formats: American, European or Japanese.
Set the format for your preference.
Transferred Call Tracking
SMDR shows each extension's share of a transferred call. If an outside call is transferred among four
extensions, SMDR shows how long each of the callers stayed on the call.
Data Call Tracking
Data Call Tracking can log the system's internal data calls. Since SMDR normally logs external (trunk)
3
data calls, Data Call Tracking lets you get a complete picture of data terminal activity.
Digit Counting
With Digit Counting, SMDR can selectively keep track of toll calls. For example, if the digit count is
nine, SMDR won't include toll calls within the home area code. Digit Counting permits SMDR to
include only the types of calls you want to monitor.
Digit Masking
Digit Masking lets you "X" out portions of the number dialed on the SMDR report. A digit mask of
seven, for example, masks out all exchange codes (NNXs) and local addresses. Digit Masking makes it
easier to keep track of calling patterns, without having to interpret each individual number. You can
also use Digit Masking to block out access and security codes.
Duration Monitoring
SMDR can include calls of any duration, or only those that last longer than the interval you specify. If
you want to keep track of all trunk activity, use a short duration. To keep track of only significant usage,
use a longer duration.
Extension Exclusion
You can selectively exclude extensions from the SMDR report. This ensures privacy for high-profile
callers. For example, the company attorney negotiating a merger may not want his calls to show up on
an in-house report.
PBX Call Reporting
If you system is behind a PBX, you can have SMDR monitor all traffic into the PBX or just calls
placed over PBX trunks. The SMDR record can include all PBX calls (including calls to PBX exten-
sions) or just calls that include the PBX trunk access code.
Serial and Parallel SMDR Communication
The system is compatible with both serial and USB SMDR devices. This gives you many SMDR
output options. For example, you can output the SMDR report to a high speed printer or send it to
disk through a PC's serial or USB port.
Trunk Exclusion
Use Trunk Exclusion to exclude certain trunks not subject to per-call charges (like WATS
lines) from the SMDR report. This makes call accounting easier, since you review only those
calls with variable costs.
