Description:Unable to use "Set(CDR(name)=value) for a new column = call_type. However, am able to set userfield by uncommenting userfield=1 in cdr_mysql.conf

Before trying this function, we DID add the new column to the cdr table.

We do have db = asterisk,table = cdr.
We are able to write to the cdr table just like always.
We were able to add this line to extensions.conf & have it write the userfield value: exten => 2001,3,Set(CDR(userfield)=999)

Data added in extensions.conf file as follows:

exten => 2001,1,Playback(transfer)
; sample code is: Set(CDR(name)=value)
exten => 2001,2,Set(CDR(userfield)=999)
exten => 2001,3,Set(CDR(call_type)=I)
exten => 2001,4,Dial(SIP/2001,20)
exten => 2001,5,Hangup

Thinking "call_type" needed to be set in cdr_mysql.conf, we added it like this:

call_type=1

But no luck, so removed it.

Only the cdr_custom driver supports this new functionality.
