The CallerID that is seen by others on calls originating from your PRI is set by your PRI provider; you have no control from Asterisk about this as it gets overridden by the provider. You must contact your carrier and ask them to set the CallerID for all PRI lines to the desired name/number.

There must be different types of PRI lines because I was really shocked when I started testing my Asterisk box on my PRI and the people receiving the calls were flipping out because their caller id display was showing my 3 digit SIP extensions. I wanted all outbound calls to have the same callerid so I did it like this:

extensions.conf

[trunklocal]
exten => _6NXXXXXXXXX,1,SetCallerID(<youroutboundnumber>)
exten => _6NXXXXXXXXX,2,Dial(${TRUNK}/${EXTEN:${TRUNKMSD}})
exten => _6NXXXXXXXXX,3,Congestion

There was also a callerid option in zapata.conf, but I don't think it had any affect for me. Good luck!!
