Anthony,
I may not understand your question, but setting variables from the AMI is easy
enough:
Action: Originate
Channel: local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Context: to_meetme
Exten: s
Priority: 1
Variable: CALLERID(num)=${DEV_NAME}|CALLERID(name)=Conference Waiting
Async: true

That was exactly my question (even though I forgot the =sign). However, I
am
not able to get that to work for reason. I'm trying to set the
CDR(accountcode) on the first leg of the call and am using Channel: Local/...
I am able to get it to work if I use Variable: var1=12345 then, use
CDR(accountcode)=${var1} in the dialplan, but I was hoping to avoid this
hack.
Not sure what could be the reason, maybe something in the cdr stuff and call
origination maybe?

why not just add
Account: 12345
to the originate?
(side note: you can also have multiple Variable: lines (some versions of
asterisk have issue with the | from what i hear)
so the above would look like
...
Variable: CALLERID(num)=${DEV_NAME}
Variable: CALLERID(name)=Conference Waiting
those are bad examples as you should just use CallerID:
Callerid: Conference Waiting DEVNUMBER
i hope this helps.

that does work like a charm--it sets the accountcode, except that, for some
reason, i can't access the CDR(accountcode) value during call time.
i CAN see it in channel variables, etc. but ${CDR(accountcode)} evaluates to
nothing--it's blank. it even show up in the CDR after the call is over.
my dialplan basically says, set the callerid to the accountcode (which is my
real pstn number). since i have some users for which i need to block
outbound callerid on the pstn line, this was a convenient way to distinguish
between my devices with my accountcode and those without.
now that i'm trying to originate calls from a secured webpage using the
manager, it seems like my method isn't working well :(
i'd like to keep the callerid=Name internal exten settings in my devices
so internally, we see the extensions instead of a full pstn number.
how else would i be able to set the outbound/external callerid per device?

This definitely sounds like a bug to me -- would you mind creating a bug
report on the bug tracker (http://bugs.digium.com) so that the
developers can take a look at it? Thanks!
