Submitting CDRs to a database

If you have a remote third party database, you may submit the Call Detail Records (CDR) to the database. Each CDR contains the full life cycle of a call. Using the database’s interface, you can display and review the CDRs.

To enable CDR submission, make sure to select Remote CDR name. For more information, see Setting up an IVR.
