Working hours and holidays
How to send calls differently in and out of working hours, set holidays, and switch the mode by hand.
For PBX version 0.3 (alpha)
A schedule divides time into working and non-working hours. A call sent “By schedule” goes to one place during working hours and to another outside them. Schedules are in “Routing” → “Working hours”.
Create a schedule
- Click “New schedule” and set the “Name”.
- On the “Hours” tab, mark the working intervals for each day of the week. There are ready-made options: “Mon–Fri 9:00–18:00”, round the clock, and “Clear”. A night shift is set with two intervals: before midnight and after it.
- Turn on “PBX holidays are days off” if the company does not work on holidays.
- On the “Where to send” tab, choose where calls go “During working hours” and “Out of hours and on holidays”.
- “Save”, then “Apply”.
Then choose this schedule in an inbound route: “Send calls to” → “By schedule”.
Holidays
On the “Holidays” tab, click “New holiday”: “Name”, the dates “From” and “To” (for a single day, leave “To” empty). “Every year on these dates” is for holidays with a fixed date.
Switch by hand
“Mode”: “By schedule”, “Open” or “Closed”. The manual mode works at once, without “Apply” — for example, if the office closes early.
From a phone, the mode is switched with a code if “Switch from a phone” is on: the code is shown in the schedule settings.
Time zone
Schedules follow the PBX time zone: “General settings” → “General” → “PBX time zone”.
