Configuring attendant schedules

To set up attendant schedule properties for a voice mail domain, use the Attendant Schedules tab. You can edit, copy, rename and delete existing schedules, and create new schedules.

The Attendant Schedule defines the availability of a subscriber’s personal operator. A subscriber can have an extension number configured (by a system administrator) as a personal operator number. This personal operator replaces the system-wide Automated Attendant during the times specified in the Attendant Schedule.

  1. In the Voice Mail System Configuration window, click the voice mail domain.
  2. If you have more than one voice mail domain, you may need to expand the tree hierarchy to find the one you want.

  3. Double-click Telephone User Interface for that voice mail domain.
  4. The system displays the Telephone User Interface - Voice Mail Domain dialog box, with the General tab active.

  5. Click the Attendant Schedules tab.
