B.2 How the Input Is Processed
Comparing Input to the Dialing Plan Patterns
The input is compared to each dialing plan in turn, starting with the first listed account. The process is slightly
different depending on how the call is placed:
• If the input was dragged or selected, then the entire input is compared to each dialing plan. If a complete
match is found, then that account is selected and the associated transformation is performed. If no match is
found, the default account is selected and no transformation is performed.
• If you are typing the input, the digits are compared one by one as they are entered. The comparison will
result in one of the types of matches described in the table below.
It is possible for the same input to get matched to different dialing plans depending on whether the input is
entered on the fly or dragged. It is important to keep this in mind when designing dialing plan patterns.

Partial match The characters typed so far follow the pattern but
there are not yet enough characters for a pending
or complete match. The default account is
selected. No transformation
is performed. If you stop typing for the
long timer length (20
seconds), then the default
account is selected. No
transformation is performed
on the characters typed so
far.
Pending match • The pattern has no . (dot) but does have the T
timer. There is a perfect match.
• The pattern has a . (dot) and the T timer. The
minimum requirements are met.
This pattern's account is
selected and the
transformation is performed. If the T timer expires, this
pattern's account is selected
and the transformation is
performed.
Complete match • The pattern has no . (dot) and no T timer.
There is a perfect match.
• The pattern has a . (dot) but does not have the
T timer. The minimum requirements are met.
This pattern's account is
selected and the associated
transformation is performed. This pattern's account is
selected and the associated
transformation is performed.
No match The characters typed do not match the patterns
for any dialing plan. The default account is
selected and no
transformation is performed. Nothing happens even after
the T timer and long timer
have expired.
