PRI DID Config xxx not a valid option for received number

[tls2k]

I have a norstar with pri configured, we have a block of 40 DIDs, the setup is currently configured for 3 digits transfered by phone company. our 3 digits all happen to be 4xx and it has been working fine for the last 8 months. We are moving a few remaining copper lines over to the pri, however these numbers are would end in 2xx and 9xx, when I go into trunk/line data to configure the received number for the new numbers I get the message " '920 is not a valid option for 'received number'" (920 happens to be the 3 digits in this example), I get the same message for the other numbers I am trying to configure that are 2xx and 9xx. If i use another fake received number, for example 489, it takes it.

Any ideas on what is going on here?

is 9 or 2 being used for outbound?

Ask the TELCO to send down a different digit, for instance if I have 4 digits recieved and my number was 416 321-9123 then ask Bell to send 8 not 9 so when people dial 416 321-9123 the TELCO will translate that number into 416 321-8123, you still can label the line as 9123 but put recieved digit as 8123.
The only poeple who will know about the 9 being manipulated to an 8 are you the tech and the TELCO, nobody else will know or need to know.

Hope this made sense and helps.

the received number cannot be the same as or be the start digits of a line pool access code, a destination code, the DISA DN or the AUTO DN"

my suspicion would be that you have "9" as a destination code. If you set up a slew of destination codes such as "90" "91" "9201" "9202"...." "93" "94" "95 might be a work around if you can't get the number manipulated as stated above.

in CO language, it is called as Drop/ insert digit

How about just changing your number of received digits to 4 or 7? That wouldn't take much explaining to the telco, and its real straightforward down the road. Of course you'd have to coordinate the change with the telco, but it's a one-time thing.

If you went to 7 digits received you would be covered if you added more numbers in the future and the telco put them in a different exchange (which they love to do around here).

curlycord has the right idea . IF you have the telco start all recieved digits with a "5", by default this will not conflict with any access codes
