NV Reminders with Auto Extension Number

Solved: NV Reminders with Auto Extension Number

Hello!
Is there a way to use NV Reminders to automatically detect the calling extension (or Caller ID Num, when appropriate - ex. outside call for reminder) and use it for the reminder destination?

Thanks

I got as far as having it set the calling extension as the destination no matter what is dialed when it asks for extension number. I changed

[reminder8]
exten => s,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=7)
exten => s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=10)
exten => s,3,GotoIf($["foo${APPTPHONE}" = "foo"]?4:5)
exten => s,4,Set(APPTPHONE=${CALLERID(number)})
exten => s,5,Playback(you-entered)
exten => s,6,SayDigits(${APPTPHONE})
exten => s,7,Background(if-correct-press)
exten => s,8,Background(digits/1)
exten => s,9,Background(otherwise-press)
exten => s,10,Background(digits/2)
exten => s,11,Background(press-star-cancel)
exten => s,12,WaitExten()

to

[reminder8]
exten => s,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=7)
exten => s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=10)
exten => s,3,Set(APPTPHONE=${CALLERID(number)})
exten => s,4,Playback(you-entered)
exten => s,5,SayDigits(${APPTPHONE})
exten => s,6,Background(if-correct-press)
exten => s,7,Background(digits/1)
exten => s,8,Background(otherwise-press)
exten => s,9,Background(digits/2)
exten => s,10,Background(press-star-cancel)
exten => s,11,WaitExten()

But, how can I skip the step where it asks for extension and have it play the extension number at the end when it reviews the details of the call (date, time, etc.)

Thanks

Hooray!
I got it.
This is the changed code in extensions-custom.conf

[reminder7]
;exten => s,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=7)
;exten => s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=10)
;exten => s,3,Read(APPTPHONE,custom/reminder4,0)
exten => s,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)
exten => t,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)
exten => i,1,Goto(s,3)
exten => #,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)
exten => h,1,Hangup

[reminder8]
exten => s,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=7)
exten => s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=10)
exten => s,3,Set(APPTPHONE=${CALLERID(number)})
exten => s,4,Wait(2)
exten => s,5,Playback(your)
exten => s,6,Playback(extension)
exten => s,7,Playback(number)
exten => s,8,Playback(is)
exten => s,9,SayDigits(${APPTPHONE})
exten => s,10,Background(if-correct-press)
exten => s,11,Background(digits/1)
exten => s,12,Background(otherwise-press)
exten => s,13,Background(digits/2)
exten => s,14,Background(press-star-cancel)
exten => s,15,WaitExten()
exten => 1,1,Goto(reminder2,s,1)
exten => 2,1,Goto(reminder7,s,1)
exten => *,1,Playback(goodbye)
exten => *,2,System(/bin/rm -f /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/custom/${TMPMSG}.gsm)
exten => *,3,Hangup
exten => t,1,Goto(reminder8,s,5)
exten => i,1,Goto(reminder8,s,5)
exten => h,1,Hangup

The only thing is that if you press 2 after it reads your extension, it just reads it again. Just a minor thing, though, unless you want to schedule a reminder from one phone to another.

I got a little further.
I added a reminder10 which is the same as the original reminder7.

[reminder10]
exten => s,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=7)
exten => s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=10)
exten => s,3,Read(APPTPHONE,custom/reminder4,0)
exten => s,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)
exten => t,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)
exten => i,1,Goto(s,3)
exten => #,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)
exten => h,1,Hangup

and now under reminder8, change

exten => 1,1,Goto(reminder2,s,1)
exten => 2,1,Goto(reminder7,s,1)

to

exten => 1,1,Goto(reminder2,s,1)
exten => 2,1,Goto(reminder10,s,1)

But now it just hangs up after you press #.

Now I tried changing

exten => #,1,Goto(reminder8,s,1)

in reminder10 to

exten => #,1,Goto(reminder8,s,9)

I thought that that would go back to reminder8 and start at number 9. That way the number entered would not be overridden by reminder8,s,1 Caller ID number detector. But it still hangs up on me.....
