Viewing call charge information
DEFINITY ECS provides two ways for you to view call-charge information: on a 
telephone display or as part of the Call Detail Recording (CDR) report. From a 
display, users can see the cost of an outgoing call, both while the call is in progress 
and at the end of the call.
Instructions

call in progress. The charges will appear in currency units (in this case, Lira) on 
the user’s telephone display.
