Hello, I have a ser and asterisk setup. Users register on ser and all the national and international calls go through asterisk. Asterisk handles the billing part for long distance calls. Now I got an issue with call forwarding. Here is the situation. Useragent A calls Usergent B. User B has setup the call the call forwarding to his cell phone. So when user A calls user B, ser check that user B has set the forwarding and send the call to Asterisk box. Asterisk box sees user A in the callerID and bills user A for that call. We want user B to be billed for that call, cause he is forwarding the calls to his cell phone (long distance number). How can I achieve this.
Thank you, -Jai
Hi,
Interesting, i was facing similar problem, i had quick fix for that. If it possible leave call forwarding part to UA if you using any hardware/software user agent and don't use SER for call forwarding. If you find other solution through ser, let me know. Ali...

If you pay attention to the SIP packets, you'll see that the SIP To: header doesn't change even through the URI might. What we do is keep track of anyone who has call forwarding turned on, and if that's the case, we forward the calls to a DIFFERENT AGI on the Asterisk box. That AGI takes into account the incoming SIP To: header and ensures that billing is charged to the SIP To: user.
For instance, if you call 6363@yourserver.com and 6363 overwrites the RURI to 004428364825, then looking at the SIP To: header, you'll still see that the call went to 6363. You can then bill to the appropriate user.
Is it a foolproof scenario? Probably not, but it hasn't broken yet, and we don't have to put the onus on the UA.

Hi,
Maybe you want to use the Diversion header? There is a diversion module in SER.

We probably do, but when we wrote the code originally, there was an issue in Asterisk with grabbing some of the headers that would cause Asterisk to crash. Since it worked, we just never went through and rewrote it later on.

As far as I remember, this is just a repost of your previous post. Please, if nobody answers, there is a reason. Your question is far too general and as you state that Asterisk is doing the billing and your question is a billing question, I suggest you try to Asterisk list. g-)
