Hi Adrian,
Thanks for the quick response. As I thought!
Can you just confirm that if I have 1 as a destination,1 as a rate and
also 1617 as a rate and 1617 is the number dialled then according to
the documentation the rating engine will find the 1 destination but
will do a longest match and find 1617 as the rating record or am I
hoping for too much?
Regards,
Brian
