[asterisk-users] Dial multiple extensions and know who picks up call

[Kyle Kienapfel]

Any updates on this? It looks like I can't update CDR(userfield) from
inside such a macro and have it written to the cdr record.

[macro-pstn-trigger]
exten => s,1,noop()
;exten => s,n,DumpChan()
exten => s,n,verbose(${DIALEDPEERNUMBER})
exten => s,n,verbose(cdr userfield ${CDR(userfield)})
exten => s,n,verbose(${CHANNEL(channeltype)} ${CHANNEL(peername)}
${CALLERID(num)})
exten => s,n,Set(CDR(userfield)="DIALEDPEERNUMBER=${DIALEDPEERNUMBER}")
exten => s,n,verbose(cdr userfield ${CDR(userfield)})

the change shows up on the last line.

I might have to write to a file inside my macro?
