[Asterisk-Users] Identifying a call with manager interface

[mattf]

You can also use a unique CallerID, that's how I got call tracking to work
with my Asterisk Central Queue System(backend part of the astguiclient).
Take a look at the code if you like:

You should be able to specify an ActionID with the originate request. 
Asterisk will the put this ActionID in all replys to your request. 
Haven't (yet) tried this myself, but check manager.c for the exact
