Functional Description

Call History provides a record of calls that have been dialed, received, or missed on the phone. A single Call History record represents a single phone call and contains the various attributes of the call. The call record may be further associated with a contact through its phone number in which case the contact information is utilized when displaying the record. Up to 50 call records are permitted, the oldest record being discarded when a new record is created.
