Thanks for your answer.  So "accounting_start_query" should be called 
when a INVITE gets processed by opensips, "accounting_stop_query" when a 
BYE gets proccesed by opensips (using the opensip's setflag function I 
guess), and "accounting_update_query" gets called by mediaproxy when the 
RTP flow stops.  The start and stop procedures set values on 
AcctSessionTime column, does the update procedure does the same thing? 
Thanks for your reply.
