[Asterisk-Users] Call Rate in CDR

[John Brown (CV)]

So what do people think about adding the "call rate" to the CDR
structure??

This would allow you to detail a call with the rate that was
in affect for that call.  When you come back later and do 
the billing for the customer you would have the actual per min
rate in the record.

I think this solves an issue when you have changing rates and
multiple providers.  If one provider is down, and you use 
a back up you can track the "rate" better.

In fact as I type this, I think we should have  

cost_rate   the rate you where charged for this call
cust_rate   the rate you charge your customer for this call



or is their a better way to do this.
