Activate Out of Office voicemail at predetermined time

Hello,

 

For the out of office voicemails my users are requesting the ability to set a predetermined time for it to become active. 

 

Example: User A is going on vacation in 1 week and sets up an out of office voicemail, then marks it to be enabled on the day they are on vacation and disables the day they return. 

 

Currently they only have the ability to do it the day of.

    The only way to sort of, kind of do this right now is to set an unavailable message, and then make sure that the user's status gets updated to away right when they leave and available when they return. If you set a temporary message, it becomes effective immediately. The user can't interact with the schedules that a Super Admin creates, at least, not that I can see. This would certainly be helpful and could operate just like we had set a dial plan that allowed that schedule to take effect. It could be a part of the find-me-follow-me section of their page. Especially since this is already basically a mini-dial plan.
