Billing Number (BN)

The 10-digit number (North America) that is billed when the calling party makes a toll call. The BN is not always identical to the Calling Party Number (CPN); for example, a company may have a BN of 555-7000, yet an individual at the company may have a CPN of 55-7335. Taken together, the CPN/BN information allows the called party to identify the calling party and determine call volumes from particular geographic areas. See also Calling Party Number (CPN).

Call Classification after Answer Supervision

A DEFINITY ECS (R5) feature that removes the call classifier port from a switch-classified call.

If Answering Machine Detection is requested by ASAI for a switch-classified call, then call classifier will be added to the call when the trunk has returned answer supervision.

Call Control Capabilities

Capabilities (Third Party Selective Hold, Third Party Reconnect, Third Party Merge) that can be used in either of the Third Party Call Control ASE (cluster) subsets: Call Control and Domain Control.

Call Detail Recording

A DEFINITY ECS feature that generates records that contain information about particular calls controlled by ECS.

Caller INformation FOrwarding (CINFO)

A feature that provides the capability of using the customer-entered digits (ced) and customer database-provided digits (cdpd) supplied by the network in an ISDN PRI SETUP message for an incoming call as collected digits in vector processing.
