Overview
The Custom Destinations module allows you to register your custom destinations that point to custom dialplans. It will also "publish" these destinations as available destinations to other modules.
APPLICATION NOTE
This is an advanced feature that is used to link to custom code on your PBX and should only be used by knowledgeable users.
Logging In
On the top menu click Admin
In the drop down click Custom Destinations
Creating a Custom Destination
For each custom dial plan destination, you can define the following:
Target
This is your custom destination. Define the custom dial plan that you want to route the caller to in the format [context],[exten],[priority]. Example: “afterhours-pin,501599,1,” which is the start of the custom “After Hours Pin” dialplan we have on this box.
Description
Give this custom destination a friendly name. Example: "My cool Script"
Notes
Here you can define notes on what this custom dialplan or script is used for.
Return
Does your custom destination end with 'Return'? If so, you can then select a custom destination after this call flow is complete.
If you select Return: Yes, then you will see a new dropdown menu where you can select the appropriate return destination.
Submit
Don't forget to click the Submit button and click the red Apply Config button at the top when done.
Using a Custom Destination
In modules that support "destinations," like IVR, Queues, Inbound Routes etc., you will see a Destination chooser like the one below. In the drop down choose "Custom Destinations" then the destination you created.
