Capturing SMDR from mulitple locations to one PC

If you need to capture the SMDR from several locations to one PC in the network then you either need to have a DeltaServer running on each system or you need Billing Software.
There is a free alternative for that when you do not need Billing software and if you dont have a available PC on each location.

You can use NC.EXE for this purpose.
This can be found here :
In IP Office 4.1+ > System > CDR/SMDR you enable SMDR fill in the IP Address of the receiving PC and enter a port number, each location must have a different (free) port number.

Copy nc.exe to the harddisk of the PC and make a dos batch file for each location like this:
( save the bold contents as "SMDR_sitex.bat" )

FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 eol=/ DELIMS=/ " %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET mm=%%B
md C:\Avaya\SMDR\SiteName
c:\nc.exe -l -p 8881 >> C:\Avaya\SMDR\SiteName\%mm%_smdr.txt &

8881 is the port number!


create a batch file for each location.
Open the Windows TASK manager and schedule the batch files to run daily at 00:01 hour and let the task run for 24 hours.
There will be a SMDR file for each day named "01-12-2009_smdr.txt" were 01-12-2009 will be the date the file was created.
