Configuring the SMDR output
This version of the Cisco UCM stores its call records in a Microsoft SQL Server database. However, by default, this functionality is not enabled. To enable it, the following settings must be configured on the Publisher using the Service Parameters configuration window:
...
This version of the UCM outputs its call records to a table named CallDetailRecord in a database entitled CDR. Rather than have TIM Plus enterprise read and remove CDRs from the live CallDetailRecord table, we recommend you replicate this into a second table - leaving the original intact - so that it may be used by other applications that require it. Normally, there already exists a SQL User with the following credentials:
...
You need to know the following information in order for TIM Plus Enterprise to be able to connect to the Cisco UCM CDR database:
- The IP address or hostname of the Microsoft SQL Server database located on the Publisher node.
- The username and password to connect to the CDR database.

<h2>Configuring Cisco Unified Call Manager</h2>
<p>By default the CDRs are not written to the MS SQL Database. The following 'Service' parameters need to be enabled on the <span class="reference">Publisher</span> using the
<span class="reference">Service Parameters</span> Configuration window:</p>
<ul>
<li>CDR Enabled</li>
<li>CDR Log CallsWith Zero Duration Flag</li>
<li>Call Diagnostics Enabled</li>
</ul>
<p>The database that TIM Enterprise will connect to what is called 'CDR'. Within this database there is a table called 'CallDetailRecord'. Rather than TIM Enterprise reading and removing data from the 'CallDetailRecord'
table we <b>highly recommend</b> that you setup a second table which is a replication of the 'CallDetailRecord' table. This leaves the original table intact and can be used by other applications that may require it.
There should be a SQL User already created with the following credentials:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Username:</b> <span class="keyword">CiscoCCMCDR</span></li>
<li><b>Password:</b> <span class="keyword">dipsy</span></li>
</ul>
<p>To setup replication you will need to speak to your Database
Administrator or your Cisco UCM maintainer. The replicated table name
should be called 'calldetailrecord2'.</p>
<p>Please make sure that when the replication is setup that the above user has full access to the new table.</p>
<p>You will need to know the following information for TIM Enterprise to connect successfully to the Cisco UCM CDR database:</p>
<ul>
<li>IP/DNS of the MS SQL Database which is located on the <span class="reference">Publisher</span>.</li>
<li>Username and Password to connect to the CDR database (you may need to speak to your maintainer about this).</li>
</ul>
