[Asterisk-Users] accountcode not present in cdr

[Max Clark]

But what do people do with large LCR rules... Build special contexts for 
each peer/user and then include the main LCR context? This seems a 
little cludgy.

Is there any way to have the dialplan context set the account for cdr 
based on the accountcode defined in the sip.conf? At least this way I 
could have a single, generic dialplan.
