SMDR/CDR daemon/processor

I was asked the other day to build a Station Message Detail Recording
(SMDR) or Call Detail Record (CDR) processor for a client. I started
searching for examples of such a thing. I mostly found commercial apps
to handle the job.

I could not find anything on Hotscripts, phpGround.com, and a few others.

I did find a few Open Source things on Source Forge.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/simplesmdr/
It is active, but has missing files...
References /home/administrator/*
Those were not included though...

http://sourceforge.net/projects/opensmdr/
Written in PHP, but it hasn't been touched since 2004.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/astbilling/
Haven't had a chance to look at it yet.

My question: has anybody worked with any type of project that involved
capturing/parsing/storing/regurgitating such information?

also, have you ever worked with this or similar devices?

What sort of processing do you need? I just record all CDRs in a
database, mostly as an easily accessible audit trail.

Asterisk does the capturing/parsing/storing bit for you, but you didn't=

mention Asterisk, so that may not be of much use.

The idea is to create a SMDR/CDR processor that will work with most main stream PBX systems. Not
just Asterisk. NEC, Avaya, Panasonic, etc...

Example is, even NEC has a hand full of formats that is outputs the data in. Include/exclude the
date column. That sort of thing.

It is a part of the project in whole, it merely is but one of many different formats.

Thanks for the information!
