Avaya Definity v1 SMDR setup and CDR format

This page shows how to get call records out of the Avaya Definity v1 into Advanced PBX Data Logger: the connection settings, the parser to select and the 8 fields the logger extracts for reports or a database. The settings apply to our logger; other call accounting software may expect a different configuration.

Quick facts

Settings from the manufacturer's documentation

Taken from Avaya ACM4 - All CDR formats, Avaya ACM6 - Condition codes. Values are those stated in the documentation; confirm them against your firmware release.

Switching SMDR output on, as documented

1. Type change system-parameters cdr to reach the CDR System Parameters screen where the output format, endpoint and date format are set.

Record format notes

Reports and a database

Once records arrive, the logger writes them to a text file or to any ODBC database in real time, or hands them to the PBX Reports utility for manual, scheduled and e-mailed reports with a built-in web server. See exporting call log data to a database for the database setup.
