[asterisk-users] PhpAgi call generation

[Nitesh Divecha]

Finally, this is what I was looking for... to generate a call.

I have been working on my Time Clock application, where an employee will 
call into the system using his cellphone to clock in and clock out his 
hours. And it works perfect...

Now I was looking for an option where or if an employee is late to clock 
in, the system has to generate a call and call the supervisor and inform 
him that XYZ employee is late and give an option to supervisor "Would 
you like to call XYZ employee, Press 1" and the system will call the XYZ 
employee and connect with the supervisor...

Is it something feasible to do using the .call files? Or I am way too 
off...

Cheers,
Nitesh
