Either store the Caller ID somewhere using your PHP script and then later 
add it to the CDR data of the other call, or look at at ImportVAR() or 
the SHARED() function (of which Tilghman has made a 1.4 backport 
available). 

In either case you will need to do some matching magic to logically link 
the two calls, maybe with the help of BRIDGEPEER. Possibly there are some 
transfer specific channel variables that can help you with that (like 
BLINDTRANSFER or TRANSFERSTATUS). This depends on your Asterisk version, 
though. Anyway, since you already determined where to transfer the call 
to that matching should not really be an issue.
