More Robust Schedules and Holiday scheduling
It would be great when you create a schedule that you could color code the schedule with day mode, night mode, AND LUNCH mode with out having to make a second schedule. That would mean the schedule tab would need to have a 4th option for lunch.
I would also like to see a node that can be drawn to "holiday schedule" node in the dial plan. The holiday tab could be set up how it is not with admins being able to set the dates and times of the holiday but then they would also be able to add a sound clip to each of the holidays that are scheduled. This would make it so admins don't have to login all the time to change the holiday message OR is they forget then a customer isn't hearing the Thanksgiving message at Christmas time

KateG I thought this whole thread was about improvements to the scheduling component of your product. When the status was changed to delivered, I checked and cannot see any major changes/improvements to scheduling. Is it possible to find out what updates occurred to scheduling? Or do I need to create a new thread asking for improvements to scheduling (similar to what this thread is).
Hi JacobHVAC, WildAdmin , nice to see you. We released several updates last year and new text-to-speech with audio files was recently released.
I would recommend creating a new, single idea if you would like to see something that hasn't been released. The Idea guidelines can be found here.
Agree with JacobHVAC. I don't see any changes.... I would still love to set July 4th as a holiday once, not every single year.....
Can GoTo please elaborate on exactly what was delivered? The only difference I see is we can now sort holidays by date.
Enable recurring holidays within Schedules for the PBX. The system should be able to recognize when holidays move around on a calendar. For exmaple, July 4th falls on a tuesday this year but next year the system will recoginize the date change to a wednesday, etc...
I would like to suggest that GoTo add reoccurring holidays to the schedule. My company has 45 separate PBX setups and we have to go into every single schedule to setup holidays for the new year. It is a clickfest that could be easily avoided with a little coding. Most of their competitor's products have this feature.
There are several features now available to improve and enhance holiday scheduling including creating a holiday dial plan, creating holiday sound clips, and adding holiday music. This article highlights various features now available.
YES!! this should be a feature. When you have many different schedules this becomes a burden.
It would be nice to have a feature where you can add holidays in settings and then be able to select them in the Schedule instead of having to remake them for every schedule.
