[Asterisk-Users] How to query a table from the keypad?

[Mike Pollitt]

Hi Richard -

 

What you want is AGI:

You could write a perl script to read the PO number from stdin and spit back
the balance (or whatever). To read the PO number from the user, use the
Read() dialplan application. To play back the balance, you could use
SayDigits() (but there's probably a more elegant solution specifically for
speaking amounts of money).

I am trying to give users the option to query our accts. payable database by
supplying their PO number.  I able to write queries via perl->DBI->mysql but
have no idea how to get * to do it from the IVR.  Is this possible?  Can
anyone point me in the right direction for help or examples?

Thanks,

Richard
