    CDR Search 4.0
     
    CDR Search 4.0 is a separate client application that allows the system 
    administrator or workgroup supervisor to search a Call Detail Reporting 
    database. This database amy be either internal (DBF) or external (SQL). 
    You can install CDR Search on either the NCS Serv server or on an 
    administrator client desktop. CDR Search works only with NCS Ware 
    Release 4.0. 
     
    CDR Search vs. WG CDR Search 
    CDR client offers two ways to search call records. 
    •
     
    CDR Search
     
     allows you to define a search by the type of call—
    incoming or outgoing. To perform this search, you must log in as the 
    administrator.
    •
     
    WG CDR Search
     
     allows you to specify a search by workgroup. To 
    perform this search, you can log in as the administrator or as a 
    workgroup supervisor.
    To perform a supervisor search, Center 4.0 must be installed on the 
    NCS Serv system.
     
    Installing CDR Search on a Client System 
    Make sure NCS Ware Release 4.0 has been installed on the NCS Serv 
    system and the link to TCP/ IP is enabled before continuing with CDR 
    Search setup.
    1. Log in to the client machine using a domain account and make sure it 
    is connected to the network on which NCS Serv is running.
    2. Exit any/all Windows applications.
    3. Insert the CDR Search CD into the CD ROM drive.
    4. Run the 
     
    Setup.exe
     
     program in the 
     
    CDR\CDRSearch
     
     folder.on your 
    NCS Ware or Center CD ROM. Follow the step by step installation 
    instructions as they appear on the screen. (If your system does not have 
    DCOM 95 installed already, it will be installed automatically.)
    5. On Windows 95, you’ll need to reboot your computer.

    You are now ready to log in to CDR Search as the administrator or as a 
    workgroup supervisor.
     
    Administrator Log In 
    Before you log in 
    When you log in for the first time, you need to know either the IP address 
    or the name of the server you’ll be linking to. (If you use the server name 
    rather than the IP address, CDR Search replaces the name with the IP 
    address the next time you log in.)
    To obtain the NCS Serv IP address, ask your IT administrator. 
    If you are connecting to the Internet through a modem 
    connection, before you log in, establish a session connection 
    from your PC to your Internet Service Provider. To access the 
    NCS system from the internet, NT Option Pack with IIS must be installed.
