IP Office will do it with ease, Magix/legend is just an alias for headache. IPO will let you fwd it to any number you want, pushing just about any information you want and it is remotely programmable through a telephone or pc. An IPO should be comparable, but you will have to shop around. You can always buy the hardware online and send it out to be programmed.

KXTD, KXTDA, Norstar and BCM with Pri. Pri provider must allow. After reading Ed's description, it is more involved. Would have to try this live. If you dial from a phone it will send what is programmed for that phone. But if phone is forwarded more than likely the system is accessing the trunk and will send default number or nothing and telco will send default. Will try next week on a TDA. (Most telco forwarding in Dallas you can specify if calling number is sent or forwarded number when line is forwarded through telco.)
How is it setup? If it is setup as an extension that they want to forward then they can do this with the NEC DSX Series With a PRI. The only thing is you have to have all phone numbers start with the same Nxx.
OK, let me clarify a bit deeper.....The incoming call is to a DID number that IS NOT answered. It's also the main number for one of the companies, so it is programmed to ring at multiple stations. In addition, it's not associated with just one station.
I understand that many systems, to include the STSe can send outbound CID information on a per-station basis. We aren't talking about a DID that is just associated with one station. We also aren't talking about a station actually making the outward call.
I guess for clarification purposes, and to save many of you time, let's just pretend that there are no stations whatsoever on this system. A call to a particular DID simply bounces off the system, carrying all ten digits of the DID number that was dialed along with it. Note that only four digits are being sent by the CLEC and YES, they do permit us to send out our own outbound number. Oh, and no, all numbers are not in the same exchange, in fact we are dealing with five different NXX's.
Does that help narrow the search? I really appreciate all of your suggestions, but I am concerned that we aren't all on the same page.
Yes, I know exactly what you are talking about. I did this for a guy who used all cell-phones for his outside sales and asterisk just bounced calls around.
All his outside sales rep's only had 1 CID and they knew it was business. Made using the phones for company time easy to track on the cell bill too
Don't know the Vodavi, but is it possible to forward the number to an individual trunk access for a looped extension that in turn dials out to cell phone via the pri where its' cid can be manipulated?
Just a thought. My not be a graceful solution, but in theory should do the trick.
I'm doing that exact scenerio for companies here in Vegas using a Samsung OS7400. However, I could do the same with the OS7100 or OS100 all of which are priced competitively with the STS. (Depending on configuration.) The only question I have is since the DID is associated with multiple extensions when it is forwarded do you still want it to ring the extensions in the office. (What I'm mean is do you want the cell phone to ring in conjunction with the internal extensions?)
I think John is on the right track. It sure isn't a pretty way to do it, but should work with just about any system that can forward calls outside of the system.
DID to group of extensions. One extension in group is an analog ext looped to an analog trunk port. Analog trunk port assigned to an extension set to forward using specified outbound caller ID.
I think that would be the only way to do it without going to a system with more advanced call routing cababilities.
