System and method for preparing telecommunications call record data for quantitative analysis

A system for processing Call Detail Records (CDRs) to save the CDRs for analyzing call routing comprising:

• means for joining individual CDRs from a correlated set of calls into a compound CDR;
• means for enriching said compound CDR based on comparing fields of said individual CDRs;
• means for ordering said individual CDRs that make up said enriched compound CDR by time;
• means for marking said ordered individual CDRs with correlation identifiers associated with the time order of the ordered individual CDRs;
• and
• means for saving said ordered, enriched, compound CDR.

A system for creating an enriched compound Call Detail Record (CDR) comprising:

• means for identifying CDRs according to a correlation identifier from a correlated set;
• means for sorting said CDRs in time order;
• means for concatenating said sorted CDRs into a compound CDR;
• and
• means for enriching said compound CDR.
