COSTING DIAL PLAN

Purpose:
The Costing Dial Plan is used to analyse the leading dialled digits of a number
and determine what Dial Plan it is to follow. The entries are as follows.
COST DP:
Up to 500 entries can be made.
DIGITS
: Each entry can be up to 10 digits. These are the entries that will be searched to find
a match with the digits dialled by the station making the call. This is a leading digits table and
the system will look for the exact leading digits in the table that match the number dialled.
For example, if a user dials 1305 and the Costing Dial Plan contains 1, 1308 and 1312, the
dialled digits will be matched to 1 because 1308 and 1312 do not form a complete match.
When this table is created or when any new entries are added, the system automatically
places all entries in numerical order.
No number conflicts (e.g., 142 and 1429) are allowed. Wild cards (X, Y, Z) can be used to
represent any digit and are defined in
. When all entries are used, [LAST ENTRY]
is displayed.
CALL RATE:
This is one of eight (1–8) cost rates used by
determine the correct billing according to
MMC 747 (Rate Calculation Table).
Examples
When a station user dials a number, the system will search the Costing Dial Plan to find a match. If
13056 is dialled and this MMC contains entries 1, 13, 1305 and 1401, then 1305 is the closest match
and this entry will be selected. If 1305 is dialled and this MMC contains entries 1, 13, 13056 and
1401, no action will be taken until the station user dials another digit. If the next digit is 6, the 13056
entry will be selected, but if the next digit is anything other than 6, the 13 entry is selected as the clos-
est match.
Whenever a new entry is added, the system will sort all entries in numerical order because this is the
logical order in which the system analyses digits. Wild cards are checked after exact digits. If 1813
and 18XX are entered, the system will check 1813 first. If no match is found, it will check 18XX
