[cisco-voip] how do calling party transformations work anyways?

Fri Dec 23 12:41:27 EST 2011

So are you trying to localized the calling number? Just for the phone
display. This will be applied to the phone.
2 setting, the latter disables or ignores the first.

Calling party Transformation CSS drop down
Use device Pool Calling Party Transformation

My experience is that older generation phones do not support this feature
or not consistently. Spent quite a few hrs on with TAC trying to get this
to work with 7941/7961/7921 and had varied results. 79x2 -79x5 this works
well.

The transformation affects just the display not the routing. So in this
case the call logs will show the actual number (Missed/Received calls).

There is
Best Regards,
