Hi Bogdan,
Thanks for your response. Actually I have setflag(1) at two places in my script.
Its like :
if(method=="BYE") {
    setflag(1);
};

if(loose_route()) {
    ----
    ----
};

setflag(1);

Actually I added the first condition to make sure that BYEs are not missed. I think that condition is not needed, but then where is the best place to do setflag(1) and ,ake sure that BYEs dont get missed..
Is it before loose_route condition as I have my loose_route condition in the main route.
FYI flag 1 is the flag for acc.

Waiting for a reply,
Thanks,
Jayesh.

Subject: Re: [Users] multiple BYEs getting accounted

Hi Jayesh,

normally, acc is done on transaction level, so the retransmission are
not accounted. Are you forcing acc from script via functions?? or maybe
you have 2 BYEs, from both directions?
