Hey list, According to the UCM SRND the calling party transformation patterns are to be matched with the result of the transformations performed at the RP/RL level: ********************* The calling and called party numbers resulting from the digit transformations configured in the route pattern and/or route lists are then processed by any Transformation Patterns configured for the devices contained in the chosen Route Group. ........ If you are performing several digit manipulations in a route pattern or a route group, the order in which the transformations are performed can impact the resulting calling and called party numbers used for the call. Unified CM performs the following major types of digit manipulations in the order indicated: 1. Discarding digits 2. Called/calling party transformations 3. Prefixing digits 4. Called/calling party transformation patterns ********************* However, this seems not to be the reality at least when a call is routed through a RP pointing to a RL containing h.323 or mgcp gateways. Furthermore, the lab 5c PG states (page 204) that "The calling party transformation pattern match is based on the calling number at the point the route pattern match took place", so a TP had to be inserted in between the DN and the RP to transform the calling number and not match the already created calling transformation pattern, and finally sort out the task 5.4. In contrast, when testing with a RP -> RL in which there is a sip-trk, the results are more close to what the srnd states, i.e the RP calling party transformation result is matched with the calling party transformation patters set for the gw; with the exception that calling party transformations performed on the RL level the results are ignored by the calling party transformations patterns. So at the end there are mixed results (at least with the testing I've been doing), and I couldn't come with a clear conclusion of what should be happening..., If the SRND is correct, would the current ucm behavior represent a bug?, if the PG is right, please kindly explain the process further and give some docs references in order to get a better understanding, Help very appreciated, Otto
