I love consolidation, it's a great, and necessary, idea but when the FBI
comes to my office with a subpoena asking for call detail records (and YES
this happens to me once a month) I won't be able to
give them what they need. I also use those records for other statistical
reasons.
Both of MY reasons have nothing to do with Emerald billing structure.
Perhaps the easiest way to accomplish my goal is to set up a trigger on the
calls table that inserts an identical record into the calls-keep database
or some such thing. I can stumble around SQL so I should be able to get
any info I need from there and be able to cut/paste it to a user if necessary.
Help on such a trigger would be welcome :)
Thanks,
