Abstract

A technique for use in controlling the routing of a call in a communications system is provided. In one embodiment of the technique, a call routing script is generated. The script includes at least one call routing instruction of a predetermined type that refers to a variable whose value is stored externally to the script. The value of the variable is determined by the system when the system executes the script for use in determining a destination of the call.
