Voluntary Account Codes (Verified/Non-Verified)
Voluntary Account Codes are optional. They can be entered during a call and are used
for tracking selected calls using Station Message Detail Report (SMDR) call detail

code when entering the Voluntary Account Code(s) or the code is not validated for the
SMDR call report. This does not affect the call.
