Hi, Let's say an office has 20 people with 20 extensions and they want to enter a code on their phone when they leave for lunch and a voice will tel lthe caller like: The person you are calling is out of the office and will return at 1 pm. Is this something that is possible? Many thanks, Christian

For Realisation I would suggest three parts: - Define an "Pseudo-Number" to be dialed on going to / coming back from lunch - The dialplan for this numbers should be modifiyng the state and playing an appropriate message. - The general dialplan has to read the current stat for the dialled target and act corresponding to this. - To Store the state there are DB-like functions in asterisk - or you can write an AGI.

Hi Christian,
Yes, it is possible. You will have to make your agi file for this.For
example abc.pl. Use the following command in your agi file:
my $DialedNo= $AGI->get_data("sound_filename", 3);
where $DialedNo is any varaible, you can use any name.
"sound_filename" is the name of the file you want to play. You will
use the
name of your sound file instead of "sound_filename". Make sure sound
file
should be in "gsm" format not in "wav" format.
I hope, it will solve your problem. Feel free for more information.
