Tilghman This does not make any sense. In the voip-info posting for the "h" extension it specifically states that to handle "h" while in a macro that the macro needs an "h" extension. The "h" extension runs inside the macro but the CDR data is not being updated correctly. Also the rc-ANSWER entry in the macro does not update the CDR with the ${HANGUPCAUSE} either after the far end hangs up. This is diffently inconsistent behavior here. Both the DIAL and "h" extension are inside the macro so the behaivior should be consistent. If I am understanding you correctly the only way we can get a CDR to update after a dial is to not do any DIAL calls in a MACRO is this what you are saying? Otherwise your logic may be flawed or we have a very big logic bug in the Asterisk Macro system.
From: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+h+extension Be aware: Macros require their own h extension as they do not make use of the calling context's h extension! Tilghamn thanks for the feed back the back and forth here is great and helps a lot it is giving me more ideas to test against.

The "h" extension should be in whatever context is calling the Macro, not in the Macro context itself. -- Tilghman -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
