====== Yealink Call History ======

On more complicated PBXs with digital trunks, it is common to manipulate the CallerID information being sent with outbound calls.  FreePBX developers concluded this was useful information to display to the **caller** making the outbound calls.

FreePBX default settings tell outbound-calling phones to display a **modified CallerID Name** (CNAM) when making outbound calls.  They will display:

<file>
CID:<number>
</file>

where ''<number>'' is the **outbound CallerID Number** (CNUM) that the PBX is **sending to the callee**.

===== The Problem =====

Most phones display the dialed number in their call histories making it simple to redial a called number.

Yealink phones will save the modified CNAM in their call history...the same call history that is used for redial functions.  A Yealink user that goes to redial a previous outbound call will see their own number in the call history, in the format ''CID:<number>''.

===== The Solution =====

**FreePBX -> Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Dialplan and Operational** (about half way down the page)

Set ''Display CallerID on Calling Phone'' to ''False''.
