No. The click2dial in SEMS is triggered via an xmlrpc interface from a
web application or something like that and creates an INVITE for each of
the two call legs. These legs appear to OpenSER as two completely
independent calls and can be accounted as such.

With the SEMS solution what generates the INVITE? You say that it can be
accounted on OpenSER. If so does that imply that OpenSER generates the
INVITE which is then passed on to SEMS? If so presumably that could be
adapted for OpenSER to Asterisk.

Right. The problem with the Refer is that not all UAs support it
correctly (at least the last time I tried, which - I have to admit - was
a year ago), and it might be tricky to account it correctly.
With the SEMS solution, there are two separate invites which are
authenticated using the user you pass to the script, so it's easy to
account it on OpenSER and it doesn't depend on the help of the UAs. But
you have to set up SEMS, which adds another external dependency to your
system, as Bogdan points out.
On the other hand, if you already use Asterisk, you can also use that
one to implement click2dial (a quick google check shows there are some
scripts available).

I currently use OpenSER and Asterisk and I can get the call set up using
ctd.sh. The question I have relates to the accounting. Using the ctd.sh
script is there a way to get the CDR records written from OpenSER? If I
understand correctly, OpenSER drops out of the call signalling and will
not
receive any BYEs so accounting will be
impossible; am I correct? Asterisk
will record the calls but billing them appropriately using those records
would be problematic (I think).
If using the SEMS option, am I correct in thinking that it would be
possible
to use the accounting records from OpenSER?

It's already included, see
