Exception and Special Processing

Overriding Call Types

In some cases, a carrier might want to override a call type. Some examples include:

Calls between a subset of NPA-NXXs in two different zones being treated differently from all other NPA-NXXs in the same zones

InterLATA calls being treated as intraLATA calls for record-generation purposes

Use the RATE-EXC tag ID to override the default call-type classification. For more information, see the “RATE-EXC Tag ID” section on page 4-16.

Processing 7-Digit Numbers

If only 7 digits are populated in the calling and called numbers, the system acts as if each incoming trunk group visible to BAMS has a default NPA and prefixes this NPA to each 7-digit number. The full NPA-NXX is required for BAMS to perform the zone analysis. Each trunk has a default originating and terminating NPA, defined in the orgnpa and trmnpa fields, in the Trunk Group table. These fields are used only if the incoming number is 7 digits.

Processing Toll-Free Calls

A toll-free call can be identified if its dialed number prefix is contained in the Tollfree table. The default toll-free prefixes are: 800, 877, 888, 1800, 1877, and 1888. Toll-free calls have their own call-type category. A zone analysis is still performed, but the call type is overridden with the toll-free call type.

Processing International Calls

Records for international calls are processed like all other records, using zone analysis. Based on the default case, international numbers are classified as interLATA calls.

Processing LNP Calls

Local number portability (LNP) calls are processed like all other records, using zone analysis. The only special processing involved is the propagation of BAF module 720. This module is generated in response to the presence of the lnp_dip field in the CDB.
