   Hello,
   the is some other fields about CDR, which some customers wants to use:
   1. CDR Log Calls with Zero Duration. This parameter enables or disables the logging of call detail records (CDRs) for calls that never connected or that lasted less than 1 second. Cisco CallManager logs unsuccessful calls (calls that result in reorder, such as might occur due to a forwarding directive failure or calls that attempt to go through a busy trunk) regardless of this flag setting. Default is False. You can find this setting in System > Service Parameter > CDR Log Calls with Zero Duration Flag
   2. Display FAC in CDR: This parameter determines whether the forced authorization code (FAC) associated with the call is displayed in the call detail record (CDR). Valid values specify True (display authorization code in CDRs) or False (do not display authorization code in CDRs). Default is False. You can find this setting in System > Service Parameter > (change to Advanced) > Display FAC in CDR
   3. Show Line Group Member DN in finalCalledPartyNumber CDR Field: This parameter determines whether the the finalCalledPartyNumber field in call detail records (CDR) shows the directory number (DN) of the line group member who answered the call or the hunt pilot DN. Valid values specify True (the finalCalledPartyNumber in CDRs will show the DN of the phone that answered the call) or False (the finalCalledPartyNumber in CDRs will show the hunt pilot DN). This parameter applies only to basic calls routed through a hunt list without feature interaction such as transfer, conference, call park, and so on. If a feature is involved in the call, then the hunt pilot DN will show in the finalCalledPartyNumber field regardless of the setting in this parameter. This parameter does not apply to Cisco CallManager Attendant Console. Default is False. You can find this setting in System > Service Parameter > (change to Advanced) >Show Line Group Member DN in finalCalledPartyNumber CDR Field
   4. Show Line Group Member Non Masked DN in finalCalledPartyNumber CDR Field: This parameter determines whether the finalCalledPartyNumber field in call detail records (CDR) shows the directory number (DN) or the DN applied with external phone number mask of the line group member who answered the call or the hunt pilot DN. This field is only applied if the service parameter “show line group member DN in finalcalledPartyNumber CDR field” is set to True. Valid values specify True (if the service parameter “show line group member DN in finalcalledPartyNumber CDR field” is set to True, the finalCalledPartyNumber in CDRs will show the DN of the phone without being applied by the external phone number mask that answered the call) or False (if the service parameter “show line group member DN in finalcalledPartyNumber CDR field” is set to True, the service the finalCalledPartyNumber in CDRs will show the DN applied by the external phone number mask). This parameter applies only to basic calls routed through a hunt list without feature interaction such as transfer, conference, call park, and so on. If a feature is involved in the call, then the hunt pilot DN will show in the finalCalledPartyNumber field regardless of the setting in this parameter. This parameter does not apply to Cisco CallManager Attendant Console. Default is False. You can find this setting in System > Service Parameter > (change to Advanced) > Show Line Group Member Non Masked DN in finalCalledPartyNumber CDR Field
   5. Add Incoming Number Prefix to CDR: This parameter determines whether Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) adds the incoming prefix (as specified in the National Number Prefix, International Number Prefix, Subscriber Number Prefix, and Unknown Number Prefix service parameters) to the calling party number in the call detail record(s) (CDR) for that call. If the prefix is applied on the inbound side, it will always be added to the calling party number in the CDR(s) for that call even if this parameter is set to False. If the prefix is applied on the outbound side, it will be added to the calling party number in the CDR(s) for that call only if this parameter is set to True. If the destination of the call is a gateway, Unified CM will not add the prefix to the CDR(s) even if this parameter is enabled. Default is False. You can find this setting in System > Service Parameter > (change to Advanced) > Add Incoming Number Prefix to CDR.
   6. Log Mobile Number in CDR for Rerouted RD Calls: This parameter determines whether the CalledPartyNumber field in call detail records (CDR) shows the mobile number called or the Enterprise directory number (DN) of the mobile user when a call is made to the user’s mobile number. This parameter applies only to outgoing calls to a remote destination when the Reroute Remote Destination Calls to Enterprise Number service parameter is set to True. For example, if the called number of the outgoing call to a mobile phone is +14085551234 and the enterprise DN of the mobile user is 81135555 and if this (Log Mobile Number in CDR) service parameter is set to False, the number shown in the CalledPartyNumber field in the CDR would be 81135555. Valid values specify True (the CalledPartyNumber in CDRs will show the mobile number called) or False (the CalledPartyNumber in CDRs will show the Enterprise DN). Default is False. You can find this setting in System > Service Parameter > (change to Advanced) > Log Mobile Number in CDR for Rerouted RD Calls.
