What exactly does Call consolidation do? We are running Emerald but without
the accounting features in it because Emerald does not fully support
Multilanguage and Multi tax systems. What records will we lose if we run Call
consolidation and also what scripts to run to remove start records? Will the
calls consolidation mess up the accounting portions should we start using
Emerald for that?
