How is the translated number recorded in the Call Detail Record when a dialed number is manipulated using a translation pattern?

The correct answer is C. It shows the translated number and not the originally dialed number. When a Cisco CUCM translation pattern manipulates a dialed number, the CDR records only the translated number, not the originally dialed one.

Why each option

When a Cisco CUCM translation pattern manipulates a dialed number, the CDR records only the translated number, not the originally dialed one.

AIt does not display that a call was placed.

CUCM always generates a CDR entry when a call is placed, regardless of whether digit manipulation occurred via a translation pattern.

BIt shows the originally dialed number, not the translated one.

CUCM does not preserve the originally dialed number in the CDR when a translation pattern is used - only the post-translation number is stored.

CIt shows the translated number and not the originally dialed number.Correct

CUCM applies translation pattern digit transformations before routing the call, and the CDR engine captures the number only after all manipulations are complete. As a result, the CDR reflects the translated number exclusively, which affects billing records and post-call analysis when digit translation is in use.

DIt shows only a call was placed, but not the dialed or translated number.

CUCM CDRs log the full translated number, not merely an indicator that a call occurred; suppressing the actual dialed digits entirely is not standard CDR behavior.
