About Dialed Numbers

A dialed number is the number a caller dials to initiate a call. It is sent as part of the call detail information in the route request message sent from the routing client. The dialed number plays an integral role in routing calls. Dialed numbers are required pieces of call types, which are used to identify the appropriate routing script for each call. In addition to answered calls, dialed numbers also need to be set up for ring on no answer, dialed number plan entries, and for supervisor/emergency calls.
