Abstract
In a telecommunication network, a method of creating, in response to inputs from an operator, a user defined call processing node for a call processing record. The call processing record contains logically related nodes and branches. Initially, the operator instructs the processor that he or she wishes to construct a user defined call processing node. The processor then presents to the operator a display screen in which to construct the user defined call processing node and presents the operator with a list of predefined nodes. From this list, the operator selects predefined nodes and arranges them into an underlying representation of call processing procedures. Once this is completed, the processor enables the underlying representation of call processing procedures as a single node for use in creating call processing records.
