[OpenSIPS-Users] CDRTool Q

[Brian Chamberlain]

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the answers, spot on! One last question (pushing my luck)!

If I want to give some customers different rates for a very small  
number of destinations (like 3) how do I do this without having to  
duplicate two entire sets of rates (on/off peak).

Could I setup a new profile with point that profile at the special  
rates with the default rates as fallback or is this a bad way of doing  
it, ie., will rate the calls but generate a lot of errors?

Thanks,.
Brian
