To acc, I don't know off the top of my head how accounting modules uses from vs ruri, but it should be fairly easy to change it to use ruri (which is changed by lookup("aliases")). There are some format modification possibilities found in README of acc module.

Or what about adding something like this to your query:
SELECT <existing>, a1.username as alias a1.contact as myuser FROM aliases a1, <existing> WHERE <existing AND (t1.to_uri LIKE '%username>%' OR (t1.to_uri=contact AND contact LIKE '%username>%')) <existing>

it's an attempt at a join with the alias table. No guarantees, but play around with it.

Okay... let me approach this a different way and see if anyone has ideas. 

We do logging using the ACC table... not for billing purposes, but so users
can have a look at their logs (billing CDRs are kept on Asterisk and are
accurate and good).  The problem is this... 

Our current query to display incoming calls looks like this:

SELECT t1.from_uri as Caller, t1.to_uri as Callee, TIMEDIFF(t2.time, t1.time)
as Duration, t1.time as CallDate FROM acc t1,acc t2 WHERE
t1.sip_callid=t2.sip_callid AND ((t1.fromtag=t2.fromtag AND t1.totag=t2.totag)
OR (t1.fromtag=t2.totag AND t1.totag=t2.fromtag)) AND t1.sip_method='INVITE'
AND t2.sip_method='BYE' AND t1.to_uri LIKE '%<username>%' AND (select count(*)
from acc where sip_callid=t1.sip_callid and sip_method='INVITE' and from_uri
LIKE '%<username>%')=0 ORDER BY t1.time DESC;

It's a complex query, but it works quite well... UNTIL you put aliases into
the picture. 

When using aliases, all transactions in and out in the logs are written as the
user's alias, and not the user himself. This makes sense, but it's giving me a
headache for logging. If I attempt to use a lookup("aliases") command to
rewrite the URI for the purposes of logging, the BYE message vanishes. 

So I guess my question is:  is there an elegant solution for this, or can
someone give me a way to go through each and every user's alias, create a
table like the one above, and then somehow merge the tables, ordered by timestamp?

I have quite taxed the limit of my SQL knowledge, so I'm at a loss.

Something else I noticed that perhaps someone could shed light upon:

If I DO put the lookup("aliases") line in there, the call never logs 
a BYE message.  Why does that happen? Can someone fill me in on that?

It's strange... just when you think you have a handle on all of this,
something comes along you just completely don't understand.

Okay... help me visualise something.  Now, as far as I can tell, SER 
is doing exactly what it's supposed to be doing, but I can't figure 
out how to get it to do something different.

I have an accounting section (my log flag is 1) that looks like this:

if((method=="INVITE" && !has_totag()) || method=="BYE")
{
        setflag(1);
};

Basic, simple logging section. But when someone calls through from a 
DID to an alias in the aliases table, it of course logs the sip_to 
as the alias.

Fine, I thought. I'll just add a lookup("aliases") before the 
setflag and all will be well, right? No. Then it doesn't seem to log 
anything at ALL.

So what I'm trying to figure out is how to get SER to log a call 
coming into an alias as a call to the user who's aliased.

I.e. a call is coming in from 1010@remote.proxy.com to 
9999@proxy.com (which is really an alias to user 1234@proxy.com).  
 Right now, SER is logging in the acc tables that the call went to 
sip:9999@proxy.com.

I want to have it log that the call went to 1234@proxy.com and NOT 
that it went to the alias.

This:

if((method=="INVITE" && !has_totag()) || method=="BYE")
{
     lookup("aliases");   
     setflag(1);
};

gets me nothing at all.

Ideas, anyone? I'm stumped. I'm sure it's something drastically 
simple that I'm just not getting.
