Telecommunication network that provides caller-entered information to multiple call destinations
First Claim
1. A method of operating a telecommunication network, the method comprising:
- in a switching system, routing a call to a service platform;
in the service platform, transferring a prompt message over the call, collecting caller-entered information from the caller over the call in response to the prompt message, and transferring the caller-entered information to a Service Control Point (SCP) system;
in the SCP system, transferring the caller-entered information to a first destination, processing a first destination routing code from the first destination to determine a first destination routing instruction, and transferring the first destination routing instruction to the switching system;
in the switching system, routing the call to the first destination in response to the first destination routing instruction;
in the SCP system, transferring the caller-entered information to a second destination, processing a second destination routing code from the second destination to determine a second destination routing instruction, and transferring the second destination routing instruction to the switching system; and
in the switching system, routing the call to the second destination in response to the second destination routing instruction.

Abstract
In a telecommunication network, a switching system routes a call to a service platform. The service platform transfers a prompt message over the call, collects caller-entered information from the caller, and transfers the caller-entered information to an SCP system. The SCP system transfers the caller-entered information to a first destination processor, processes a first destination routing code from the first destination processor to determine a first destination routing instruction, and transfers the first destination routing instruction to the switching system. The switching system routes the call to a first destination in response to the first destination routing instruction. The SCP system transfers the caller-entered information to a second destination processor, processes a second destination routing code from the second destination processor to determine a second destination routing instruction, and transfers the second destination routing instruction to the switching system. The switching system routes the call to a second destination in response to the second destination routing instruction.

11. A telecommunication network comprising:
a switching system configured to route a call to a service platform; the service platform configured to transfer a prompt message over the call, collecting caller-entered information from the caller over the call in response to the prompt message, and transferring the caller-entered information to a Service Control Point (SCP) system; the SCP system configured to transfer the caller-entered information to a first destination, process a first destination routing code from the first destination to determine a first destination routing instruction, and transfer the first destination routing instruction to the switching system; the switching system further configured to route the call to the first destination in response to the first destination routing instruction; the SCP system further configured to transfer the caller-entered information to a second destination, process a second destination routing code from the second destination to determine a second destination routing instruction, and transfer the second destination routing instruction to the switching system; and the switching system further configured to route the call to the second destination in response to the second destination routing instruction. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
