Description of the illustration suspense_overview.jpg

This figure shows an example of how to suspend individual or bulk CDRs. CDRs enter Suspense Manager through a preprocessing pipeline. The preprocessing pipeline converts these records to EDRs, the format used by Suspense Manager. These records go through the preprocessing pipeline only once, and only a few modules are needed for it. The successful EDRs go through a normal rating pipeline. The SE Loader converts the failed calls to objects in the BRM database. You manipulate these records by using the Suspense Management Center application. Suspended records that get recycled are processed by the pre-recycle pipeline before they go through the rating pipeline again.
