Scheduler

  • Schedules are objects that can be applied to Incoming Lines, Conferences, and CoS objects.

  • There is no limitation on the number of schedules that can be built.

  • If an Incoming Line or Conference has no defined schedule it will use the default schedule.

  • You may assign the same name to multiple schedules when creating a schedule. Schedules with the same names will be honoured if the schedule name is assigned to and Incoming Line, Conference, or CoS object.

  • If you assign identical start and stop times for a schedule, for example, 04 : 00 start and 04 : 00 stop, the schedule is in effect all day. The only exception to this is a start and stop time of 00 : 00 ; in this case the schedule is off for the day.

  • The default scheduler object is a 24 hour schedule always in effect.

  • Schedules effect only a 24 hour period and do not span days

  • For example a schedule with a start time of 22 : 00 and a stop time of 06 : 00 triggers two schedules within the same 24 hour period.

  • The schedule is invoked once at 22 : 00 and remains active until midnight.

  • The schedule is invoked once at midnight and remains active until 06 : 00.

  • An additional schedule(s) would be needed to fill the void between 06 : 00 and 22 : 00 to take priority over the default schedule.

In this example each of these incoming Lines all share the same DNIS Extension used to route incoming calls.

  • The schedule in the options tab chooses shows the required scheduler object assigned from the Manager>Scheduler tree.

  • The Destination is set to each required Destination as needed.

  • An unlimited number of Incoming Lines can be created in this manner to support an unlimited number of schedules and required Destinations.
