I have many remote users, and to make the life easy I use their
existing e.164 phone number. That way nobody of my users need to
think what number the other party has on our system or PSTN, ....
As more users you get, as less you will remember their "name".
Therefore I tried to use the field username for this help.
It is easy to remember 49 is the (only) guy in Germany and 8621 is
our Shanghai person, but most of the people are in 8862 (Taipei)!!!!
Is there another solution ?
using a standard configuration option for something else than it is
intended is a dangerous path to take.
There is a setting called "setvar" that lets you set any custom
setting you want for all incoming calls belonging to a peer or user.
You can use this to set customer IDs, nicknames, favourite brand of
beer - anything.
