What can we do through asterCC?

1. Intergrated with a CRM system, then you could start then development of your own call center
asterCC could get live call messages from the asterisk, including

src –> callerid
dst –> calleeid
srcchan –>  channel of the source
dstchan  –> channel of the destination
starttime –> time of the call start
answertime –>  time of the call is answered
srcuid –> uniqueid of the source
dstuid –> uniqueid of the destination
disposition –> result of the call

when there is a new call in asterisk, asterCC will insert a record into the realtime cdr table (curcdr), and it would update the record based the call status in asterisk, and when the call is finished, asterCC would delte the record in realtime table and insert the cdr into the history cdr table (mycdr)

the following product is using asterCC for call center

2. as a realtime billing product for asterisk system
in asterCC there is a daemon named asterrc, using asterrc, it could calculate the fee of the call based on different rate, asterrc support reseller, group, clid three level rates, it also support both prepaid and postpaid.

the astercclock daemon could hangup the call based system user status.
