First Claim
1. A provisioning server implementing a telephony service associated with a user, in which calls involving a directory number of the user are processed in accordance with the telephony service and customized call service data, the provisioning server being configured to interface a call processor with a web server and an interactive voice response (IVR) platform in a telecommunications network, the provisioning server comprising:
- a first interface configured to receive the customized call service data from the web server, the web server receiving the customized call service data, entered by the user, from the web client;
a second interface configured to receive at least portion of the customized call service data from the IVR platform; and
a third interface configured to send the customized call service data to be stored in a database accessible to the call processor, wherein an instruction is received over the first interface or the second interface to activate the telephony service, in accordance with the customized call service data, via one of the web server and the IVR platform.
