System schedule settings and services scheduling
Use scheduled services to control how calls are answered in off-hours (Ringing Groups), how calls
are routed at various times of the day, and how restrictions are applied on lines and telephones at
specific times of the day.
The following paths indicate where to access scheduled services in Element Manager and through
Telset Administration:
The Scheduled Services - Settings and Schedules panel has three distinct areas for configuration.
•The table in the top frame allows you to determine which schedules are active for the system
for routing, restriction, and ringing schedules.
•The table in the top frame to the right sets the time periods within each schedule for each day
of the week.
•The table in the bottom frame allows you to rename schedules.

displays only asterisks.
Configuring schedule names and timers
The tables on this panel allow you to change the names of the schedules, and to determine when
the schedules, which are set to automatically execute, are deployed. Any changes to these settings
affect all services that use schedules.
