Change FRL on weekends?

[Zu56]

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible, and how, to change FRL for some stations depending on time of day and day of week?
I want to restrict outbound calls after hours and on weekends but do not want to use station lock feature (users will forget or ignore it anyway)

Thank you

After looking into this a little, time of day routing may be your best solution. It looks like the "alternate FRL" has to be activated by a button, which is not very good. The time of day routing looks like you program it and at that particular time is routes calls (or in this case denies them). Be careful on this with 911 ussues.

Time-of-day routing sounds right, but how do I assign COR change to the particular table? There is no COR or FRL field and I cannot use partitioning if I'm using Time of Day routing.

I didn't get into the form much (I am fighting S8710 server problems right now), but can you simply deny those calls as part of the route?? You should have some built up now that deny some calls.

You need to setup an extra set of route-patterns for your outgoing calls. On the route-patterns you can assign a FRL and the system compares this FRL to the FRL in the COR of the calling extension (if the FRL in the COR is equal to or higher than the FRL in the route-pattern, the call is allowed).

In the time-of-day routing table you can assign a PGN or a partition routing table to different time slots.

In the ARS table you can define the route-pattern for the dialled string OR you can enter a partion routing table number (e.g. p2 for routing table 2)

In the partition routing table you can assign the route-pattern per PGN.

This the place where all comes together: the PGN assigned in the tod routing table and the route-patterns you have created with the higher FRL.

This is, in a nutshell, the way I have set this up several times at several sites. Hope this helps??
