Flexible Answering Schedules - NEC SL1100 Feature Manual

ISSUE 3.5
Description
The Automated Attendant can answer outside calls with different announcements and dialing options,
depending on the time of day and day of week. For example, a company can set up separate
schedules for weekdays, evenings, weekends, and specific holidays. Each schedule can play a
different announcement to callers, as well as provide them with unique dialing options. Once set up in
programming, the schedule operation is automatic.
The Flexible Answering Schedules are determined by the set up of the InMail Answer Tables. See
