Generic: String Manipulation
This Generic command assists you in editing a call variable in various ways. For example, take the full CLI of a call (for example 01555364200) and save just the area code part (in the example 555) as a new value. The action treats variable values as text strings, it does not differ whether the value is numeric or alphabetic.
For numeric variables value, the value can also be manipulated using the Arithmetic Evaluation. See Generic: Arithmetic Evaluation.
