Abstract:
Method for creating a service profile dependent on user selection for a subscription in a telecommunication network, comprising the steps of:creating a subscription-specific database (SDP) in the telecommunication network, in which database is stored an optional number multiplicity of a calling subscriber's numbers, each associated with an optional service profile of the calling subscriber, and directing a call to a service switching/control point (SSP/SCP) after a call number analysis of the subscription concerned has been performed in the telecommunication network exchange (MSC, PTX); fetching, for outgoing calls, a new calling subscriber's number from the database (SDP), to be used as an equivalent for the old physical calling subscriber's number, and/or for an identifier associated with an optional subscriber number and entered by the user of the subscription, and activating the new calling subscriber's number for the subscription and including it in the signaling in the telecommunication network, whereby the system automatically changes the calling subscriber's number to be sent, in accordance with the identifier selected by the user, when receiving calls addressed to an alternative subscriber number, fetching a physical called-subscriber subscriber number corresponding to the old called-subscriber number from the database (SDP), connecting the call based on the physical called-subscriber subscriber number, and modifying the calling subscriber's number by adding in front of it the same identifier that is used when making calls with the optional subscriber number in question.
