noticing the sip user
user name

Hello!

 

I have an asterisk server, and it is used for ivr. If a user wants to talk with a real person, he type <something> then the ivr calls the „call handler221; on sip. This works fine, but i need to tell the „call handler&#8221; where was the user in the ivr menu, i mean, for example the user was listening technical information and he wants a call handler, or billing information etc… So is it possible to send a msg to the call handler, before he/she answers the call, to inform him/her where was the user in the ivr menu J Sorry for repeating myself.

 

Or to overwrite the zapata.conf callerid option to the menu position, somehow?

 

Thank you forwardly!

Yes there is!

Here's what you do:

In your dialplan, set a variable each menu that describes
the location.

When the caller gets to the call handler, use the A() option
with Dial to play 
an announcement.  Substitute the variable into the filename,
and the system 
will play the file with that name.  You would need to record
an audio 
announcement file for each marker you put in the IVR.

There is a similar option in the Queue application if you
are using call 
Queues.

Sorry, forgot something.

If you would rather use callerID to explain where the caller
was,
set the variable as described before.

Use the application Set(CallerID(name)=$)

That will change the caller ID name to your tag, but will
leave the number 
intact.
