Hi Tony Yes, that is exactly what I'm doing... no Answer() calls anywhere in the dialout parts of my dialplan, as detailed in my previous posts. >Is it possible that the setup part of the call (between initiation and answer) >is recorded in a separate CDR? Yes, that is correct, I get a separate CDR for the originate of the call to the agent's extension, and then a separate CDR for the call that then goes out to the client. The separate CDR for an originate event DOES appear to be correct, there is usually a second or two seconds worth of ringtime indicated, e. g. start and answer will vary (as outgoing calls did on 1.8) under 13: Start | Answer | End 2019-01-11 08:01:20 | 2019-01-11 08:01:22 | 2019-01-11 08:01:25 E. g. the agent originated by calling the AMI via our app at 2019-01-11 08:01:20, he picked up the phone at 2019-01-11 08:01:22 (e. g. he let it ring for 2 seconds) etc. This is exactly what I need to have, but not on the origination calls, the outgoing calls under Asterisk 13 - e. g. that there is a difference between the Start and Answer times, which = ringtime. For the origination calls, duration and billsec is correct as well, just as it was under 1.8 too. It is just with 13 that the origination calls are STILL correct, as they were under 1.8, but with 13 the outgoing calls now indicate no ringtime. Thanks for the reply!
