- A call detail record (CDR), also known as call data record, is a data record produced by a telephone exchange or other telecommunications equipment documenting the details of a phone call that passed through the facility or device.[1][2][3] It is the automated equivalent of the paper toll tickets that were written and timed by operators for long-distance calls in a manual telephone exchange.
A call detail record is composed of data fields that describe the telecommunication transaction, such as:[4][5]
- the phone number of the subscriber originating the call (calling party)
- the phone number receiving the call (called party)
- the starting time of the call (date and time)
- the call duration
- the billing phone number that is charged for the call
- the identification of the telephone exchange or equipment writing the record
- a sequence number identifying the record
- additional digits on the called number used to route or charge the call
- the disposition or the results of the call, indicating for example whether the called party was busy, or the call failed
- the route by which the call entered the exchange
- the route by which the call left the exchange
- call type (voice, SMS, etc.)
- any fault condition encountered
- Each exchange manufacturer decides which information is emitted on the tickets and how it is formatted. Examples:
- Send the timestamp of the end of call instead of duration
- Voice-only machines may not send call type
- Some small PBX does not send the calling party
- A station messaging detail record (SMDR) is similar to a CDR, but the most important difference is in the usage[vague].[6]
