More dialing permissions

Posted by mike82 on Fri, 02/25/2011

Right now there are only 3 dialing permissions. How would additional ones be added? I have users that are allowed long distance but not international. And some need to be restricted to just a few area codes. With the current three I don't have the flexibility to make these kind of restrictions.

*My company wants these because we can't trust humans.

custom programming setting variables in the Custom Tag database entry. Before you ask, there is no instructions, its custom programming and your options are hire someone to do it or use trial and error to reverse engineer the field and pass values to your dialplan.

I wrote something like that for a non-profit in NYC. Only local area codes where unrestricted, other patterns were restricted. I had a variable if they were required to put in a PIN to dial out, another variable of they were allowed international at all, etc.
