[Asterisk-Users] Call Forwarding with Account Code.. can it be done?

[Andy Kuo]

I use SetAccount(${EXTEN}) when the extension gets the call.  The original
dialed extension will be recorded as AccountCode in CDR, before the call is
forwarded.  The 1st field in CDR will be the extension your customer, the
2nd will be the caller (source), the 3rd will be the forwared number.

It works for me pretty well.
