If dest is 1 only rate for dest 1 is applied. There is no longest
match performed for a dest column in a rate table entry.
If you want a rate for 1617, add it to the dest table too.

Hi Adrian,
Thanks for the quick response. As I thought!
Can you just confirm that if I have 1 as a destination,1 as a rate
and also 1617 as a rate and 1617 is the number dialled then
according to the documentation the rating engine will find the 1
destination but will do a longest match and find 1617 as the rating
record or am I hoping for too much?
Regards,
Brian

Hi Brian,
The logic of the rating first determines the destination then it
searches for a price for it. So for every entry in destinations
table you MUST have an entry in the rates table otherwise the price
is zero.
The best practice is to maintain a central minium destination table
common for all customers (add entries to it as it grows) and define
custom rates for each of them. Also if you have lot of resellers
you can create a main rating table and add only exceptions for the
destinations particular to some of them.

Hi All,
I am sending calls to a number of different sip providers.
I have rates & destinations from all of them. Some of the providers
have broken up the amount of destinations into 30,000 different
codes.
I am trying to build the rates and destinations tables so it is easy
to maintain in the future.
Would I be best having a minimal set of destinations to cover each
country and my local countries/areas and having the rates being more
specific.
I suppose my questions are the folowing.
If I have a destination:
1 USA
and a rate for 1 USA .02
and a rate for 1617 USA (Boston)
and the customer dials Boston then looking at the logic, even
though I
don't have a boston Destination CDRTool will still rate the call
using
the rate for 1617
If the reverse was through and I had a destination 1617 for boston
but
only a rate for 1 USA would CDRTool use the 1 rate even though it
found the destination for 1617 in the destinations table?
Thanks,
Brian
