This invention uses a computer program to mine preexisting dialing plan data located in a variety of preexisting source dialing plan databases. The computer program either creates a new dialing plan database from parts of existing dialing plan databases or modifies an existing dialing plan database. The computer program replaces the current system's reliance upon manual data entry by data engineers to configure the operation of a new telecommunication switch or replace the software in a telecommunication switch that was damaged or requires a new dialing plan data configuration. This invention provides accurate and timely customer information, significantly decreases the time interval for engineering a new dialing plan database, decreases the research and data entry time, decreases the interval for lab planning and project management, improves dialing plan database integrity, provides a cleaner dialing plan database, reuses existing dialing plan data eliminating double data entry, reuses some existing software code, and uses preexisting office data administration tools and provides a platform for future growth and expandability. By accomplishing these tasks, the telecommunication switch manufacturer or telecommunication switch operator saves time, money and decreases time-to-market product and service schedules.
