Charging Event Report
Starting with R5: The Advice of Charge (AOC) feature allows ASAI to receive
charge information about the cost of an outgoing call that is routed over an
outgoing or two-way trunk group. This charge information is captured in the
Charging Event Report.
NOTE:
Only those trunk groups that have been administered for this feature will
receive charge event information. See Chapter 14, ‘‘DEFINITY ECS
Administration Forms,’’ in this document.
Charging Event Report Items
The following is a list of the items provided with this report:
call_id
The call identifier assigned by the DEFINITY ECS
party_id
The party identifier assigned by the DEFINITY ECS to the trunk generating the
charge. Not included in split charges sent due to a conference or a transfer.
called number
The outbound number that was dialed or requested.This is the same called
number reported by CDR. This number is represented before any digit
manipulation, but does not include ARS, FAC or TAC.
NOTE:
The called number contained in the Charging Event Report differs from the
called number contained in other event reports sent after a Switch-Classified
call is classified as answered. Once a Switch-Classified call is classified as
answered, the split or VDN which placed the call becomes the called
number in most event reports. However, any Charging Event Reports sent
will use the original called number.
charging number

party is involved, and no calling party number is available for an external call, then
