[asterisk-users] ${CALLERID(num)} after doing transfer from extension to extension

2011-10-24 Thread bilal ghayyad 
Hi All;

As I am using the ${CALLERID(num)} to be part of the filename that I am 
recording it, I am facing the following problem:

If the incoming call (via PSTN) reached for an extension (which is the 
reception), and then the extension transferred the call to the proper person, 
and we need to do recording for the call at this proper person, the problem 
that at this point the ${CALLERID(num)} will represnt the reception guy 
extension and not the original caller id of the caller who called from outside 
via the PSTN. How can I get this original caller id?

Regards
Bilal

Set CDR(destination) or whichever field you need to get recorded in CDRs to
get your desired stats.

As soon as the incoming call lands in a context, store the caller's number in 
a variable; for instance,
Set(ORIG_NUM=${CALLERID(num)})
and then when building up the call filename, just use ${ORIG_NUM} instead of 
=${CALLERID(num)}
