Flexible Answering Schedules
Description
The Automated Attendant can answer outside calls with different announcements and dialing options,
depending on the time of day and day of week. For example, a company can set up separate schedules for
weekdays, evenings, weekends, and speci
fi
c holidays. Each schedule can plan a different announcement to
callers, as well as provide them with unique dialing options. Once set up in programming, the schedule oper-
ation is automatic.
The Flexible Answering Schedules are determined by the set up of the IntraMail Answer Tables. See
