Schedules can prove to be very helpful for a business that needs inbound calls to their numbers to point to different targets at different times.

• With no schedule set, what you have programmed in the menu "Inbound Calls Handling" will be the inbound target for your number 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

If you need a schedule, please see below for an example of how to set one up.

Here is a common scenario we will use for creating a schedule :

Your business has two Automated Attendants, one for Open Hours, and one for After Hours.

Noted below is your schedule you have in mind:

Guide & Template

Once you have created your two Automated Attendants, head to "Cloud PBX" - "Schedules":

Next, give your Schedule an identifiable name and click "Create"

• Click "New Entry"
• Give it name and check off the days and set the hours you want. (You must use 24 hour clock for the time range!)
• Choose as a target, the automated attendant A5100 Day. Click Save.

Next there is an entry called "Default", which corresponds to "any other time not specified".

• So far you have specified what happens between 9h-17h Mon-Fri.
• So the target for "default" will be reached, only if it is not between 9h-17h Mon-Fri.
• Set the Default Target to "A5200 Closed"

Next, you will need to point your number to your Schedule, otherwise it will not be active.

Go to "Cloud PBX" - "Inbound Calls Handling"

Beside the number, and under the column "Route to", select "S5012 Regular Season" (or whatever name you chose).

Then, go to "Cloud PBX" - "Apply Changes", and click "Provision".

That's it, your schedule is now up and running!

Note: If you would prefer a more flexible routing where you can change modes from "day" to "night" with a star code or programmed key, the solution is to use our Night mode programming.
