Our current ROLM switch uses two-digit Feature Access Codes (FACs) for long-distance calls to force the entering of a set of seven digits representing a client and matter number before giving a real dial tone. This sequence is passed as part of the CDR record and is used to charge the phone call to the correct matter.
Looking through the Asterisk documentation I can see how a fixed billing code can be assigned to an extension so that the caller gets charged but how can I set up a dialling plan similar to the above without having to write a script to parse the matter number out of a stanard CDR record?
For example, a call to New York which should be charged to matter# 1234567 is dialled as; 77-1234567-1-212-555-1212.

exten => _77XXXXXXX1NXXNXXXXXX, 1, SetAccount(${EXTEN:2:7})
exten => _77XXXXXXX1NXXNXXXXXX, 2,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN:9:11})With this, the account code will at least be a separate field in your CDR record... I think that's what you're asking for...
You can add some logic to check for valid account codes and all that. Have a look at the AstCC and the Authenticate application for some ideas.
