asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Account Codes with SIP

Hello,

Does anyone know of an * plug in that will prompt a user for an
account code when they make a long distance call?

I see where you can have a static variable, but I am looking for a
lawyer bill back type application.

Thanks,
Matt

Look at the Authenticate command.

If you had looked into the Authenticate command, you would know that it
has an option that changes the AccountCode before a call. Therefore, it
would show up in the CDR.
