Manage a User's Schedules and Events
Overview
As a Department Administrator for the AT&T IP Flexible Reach Customer Portal, you can manage schedules for individual users in your department.
A schedule provides time and date parameters for other features. A schedule consists of one or more events, each with a time, date, and recurrence option. Events determine when specific features are applied to a user’s incoming calls.
The features that can be controlled through schedules are Call Acceptance, Call Rejection, Call Forwarding – Selective, Sequential Ring, and Simultaneous Ring.
You can create, edit, and delete user schedules, as well as add, edit, and delete events to an existing schedule.
