[asterisk-biz] Need help with Asterisk Config

[AmberVoIP]

Hello,

yes, it is possible, with dialplan (context) tricks.
my system, for example, working this way

1. on each did convert its local number (i.e. 07XXXYYYZZZZ for UK) to
e164

2. looking is number at all present in the CALLERIDNUM, if there is no
number, looking to CALLERIDNAME for it.

3. if in both parts is no number, lookup by database to assign it

4. if need, privacy manager (caller must DTMF his number) working

so, it is possible to change for any needs, i do not see any problem
with it.

if we calling to SIP phone, many of them show you both name and number,
so, do not need nothing special, if we calling to PSTN or cell phone,
we can only show some number and have to replace.

just one example:
this replace local number to customer's DID when caller calling within
his country, to e164 and sending later to calling card script:

exten => s,4,GotoIf($["${CALLERIDNUM}"  = "739024204"]?5:6)
exten => s,5,Set(PresentCID=4420701231231)

PresentCID -new calelrid to display 

this removing 00 from incoming calls from Italian DID (they send
00e164) and send to biling):

exten => _X.,5,GotoIf($["${CALLERIDNUM}"  = "${ACCOUNTCODE}"]?6:9)
exten => _X.,6,SetCIDNUM(${CALLERIDNAME})
exten => _X.,7,GotoIf($["${CALLERIDNAME:0:2}"  = "00"]?8:9)
exten => _X.,8,SetCIDNUM(${CALLERIDNAME:2})
exten => _X.,9,noop
exten => _X.,10,DeadAGI(billing.agi|5)

next script:

; czech numbers (9 digits - add leading 420)
exten => _X.,1,GotoIf($[${LEN(${CALLERIDNUM})} != 9]?4:2)
exten => _X.,2,SetCIDNum(420${CALLERIDNAME})
exten => _X.,3,noop ; GoTo(9)

; for billing purpose and zero removing
exten => _X.,4,noop(${CALLERID})
exten => _X.,5,GotoIf($["${CALLERIDNUM}"  = "${ACCOUNTCODE}"]?6:9)
exten => _X.,6,SetCIDNUM(${CALLERIDNAME})
exten => _X.,7,GotoIf($["${CALLERIDNAME:0:2}"  = "00"]?8:9)
exten => _X.,8,SetCIDNUM(${CALLERIDNAME:2})

If you want us to work with your goal, you can contact me offline. Or
look to above part.

Andy.
