Yusuf, to what fraction of a second are you performing a compare? Carrier reconciliation has to take into account the propagation delay of the call request if the calls traverse multiple switches. In past we performed a compare on the basis of multiple details ingress,egress, call time, answer time, etc. If you are trying to perform a flat reconciliation against call times only without any other details being compared you will drive yourself crazy. As for one or two second differences, they seem to be in line if your are using VOIP for your service offerings. If on the other hand you are using a local carrier over copper then they should be closer on length, but not necessarily on start or end times. Hope that was worth something to you! db _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
