    Call transfer to return to initiating extension

    Something that comes up all the time, and to my knowledge is not possible without some voodoo dial plan, is that customers expect that when a call is transferred, and not answered, it goes back to the extension that transferred the call. This is how traditional PABX systems typically worked. As...

    Diversion header when dialling internally

    For a call forward we have to use a diversion header in our regulatory environment. The diversion header will stipulate the originally dialled number. We have this working fine, except when it's an internal call. When Extension 100 dials 101, and 101 has a call forward set, it will put 101 in...

    New Outbound route page - gateway name not shown, only UUID

    Before the rewrite of the page, the last action would show bridge > and has a the gateway NAME. Once you click on it, it will show the UUID. This made it easy to see which gateway is specified there. On the new page, it has the UUID there with no reference to the name of the gateway. This...

    call transcriptions and summaries

    I just activated this fantastic feature. Now I am trying to see how to control its usage. If we enable this for a customer we obviously need to charge them for this. What do most people use as a model here? A fixed rate per extension? A rate for actual transcriptions and if so how would one see...

    Virtual Receptionist - screen does not update when adding keys

    I think this slipped in with 1.6. When adding a key in a virtual receptionist, it successfully does so but it does not show until you close it and open it again. So when you add 3 keys, the screen remains blank without showing any keys leaving one to wonder if it actually did it, and being...

    CDRs - status - some thoughts

    In call history, which looks great and by honing in on it gives you exactly the information you want, the status seemingly reflects the last leg of the call. However, that creates some confusion at first glance. In an example, a call came in and was answered by ext 100. The person then...

    Extension import - default has voicemail - can that be set somewhere?

    Hi When importing or creating extensions, the default is for them to have voicemail. Almost none of our customers want that (and I can relate, I don't want voicemail enabled on anything myself). So for us it would make a lot more sense to enable it where required, instead of disabling it where...

    Extension page - some more detail

    Hi Our users make extensive use of call pick ups for which we generally add extensions to a call group. It would be useful to: 1. add this to the import template 2. have a column on the extension overview page showing the call groups so that you immediately know which extensions can pick up...

    CDR detail in the DB

    Hi On our Fusion set up we periodically run a script to remove most of the information from the CDRs. There is huge amount of info which is really useful when troubleshooting, but there is no need to keep this after a few days. We do need to keep the CDRs for 5 years so we want them as compact...

    Webpage gives 500 server error when clicking on firewall

    I was going to have a look at what status>firewall gives me - but it doesn't work. I get a 500 server error. /var/www/fspbx/storage/logs/laravel.log doesn't show anything, but it does show this an hour or 2 before it. production.ERROR: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded...

    End user confusion regarding extension vs the extension number other destinations have been given

    Hi We have let our 5 "end users" try out their interface. It is overwhelmingly positive. But one thing that each one of them struggled with was the naming convention of destinations as extensions. So when a ring group is created, it gives it an extension number. We know this of course and...

    Ringotel - what makes it worth the money?

    I had a look at Ringotel. It is my understanding that it is a sofphone. Pricing seems to be very high for that though so maybe I am misunderstanding it. It's €2.49 per month, which is more than double compared to what we charge for an extension on a PBX. This vs Acrobits or microsip or a whole...

    Call Recordings - some advice and maintenance tips

    Currently we record in .wav and run a script nightly to convert this to mp3 and change the filename in the db to reflect this, to save space. We decided on this years ago for fear of putting load on the server by recording in mp3 format right away. Seeing that we are looking to start from...

    Little niggly - newly created domain not available under domain variables unless on logs out

    Hi We use billing credentials that are set up in domain variables, to send to our billing server. We do this by taking our "sample domain", copy the domain variables and then change the context and domain it belongs to (and then of course add the correct details). The newly created domain will...

    Provisioning a yealink

    I am testing auto provisioning. I have everything set up so that when I paste https://mydomain.com/app/provision/MAC.cfg pulls a config file. It asks for the username and password and works. So seemingly it's correctly set up on the server side. On the yealink T40P I have put the same url as I...

    Setting up inbound routing

    Boy am I having fun with this :-) I asked my wife to set up an inbound flow - to see how easy it would be for an end user. She got quite far without any form of documentation. A few notes: - She wanted the call to go to a ring group, but that didn't exist yet. It would be nice to be able to...

    Some advice on set up

    I like the HA setup that is described in the manual and it seems easy enough. We currently have 3 FS servers and one central DB. We do this so that we can very easily spin up a new instance of Fusion/FS when one goes down, or if we need more capacity. It has run perfectly fine for years now. If...

    Deleting a domain

    Hi I don't see an option to delete a domain (which I know on Fusion takes forever and invariably makes the gui time out, but it does delete it in the end). Am I looking in the wrong place or something still to be done?

    Diversion header

    When I set a call forward on an extension, and I enable the diversion header in the dialplan for call_forward_all, it correctly adds the diversion header which is a legal requirement for us. When setting a call forward in a ring group it doesn't - but this is because the ring group doesn't...

    domains are case sensitive - but caps are not honoured when creating a domain

    Hi We took over another voip business a while ago. They, for no particular reason, used capitals in the first part of a domain name. So CAPS.domain.com. Prior versions of Fusion would save it as such. Later versions do not. Freeswitch treats domains as case sensitive so when a phone registers...
