    Hello!

    I wonder if any of you can point me in the right direction. there are 2 variables I use in my dial plans pretty often. first the callerID (I retrieve it using a set box with ${CALLERID(num)}
    second is the destination number or the number the caller called to access the IVR, so far I set that manually in the context. but I think there must be a way to set it up variably like I do with callerid.

    I tried ${CDR(Destination)} but it doesn’t work. as a channel variable. any idea how it should be done? thank you!!!

    this is what the help says:

    Cdr
    Get or set CDR data
    This function could be used to get or set CDR data. The function is located under the Call group.
    Note:
    This function may be used to read and write data, however most of the pre-defined values are read-only. In more detail, all the types listed below are read-only, except for Account code, User field and AMA flags. You may also create your own variable and store it in the cdr record.

    Type
    Type may be one of the following: * Caller ID * Source * Destination * Destination context * Channel name * Destination channel * Last app executed * Last app’s arguments * Start time – Time the call started * Answer time – Time the call was answered * End time – Time the call ended * Duration – Duration of the call * Duration after answer – Duration of the call once it was answered * Disposition – Answer, No answer, Busy * AMA flags – Documentation, Bill, Ignore etc. * Account code – The channel’s account code * Channel unique id – The channel’s unique id * User field – The channel’s user specified field or any custom value that you wish to store

    Isn’t it “exten” variable, set by default by Asterisk?
