Night Service Button (#503) - Avaya Partner 18 Programming And Use Manual

Night Service Button (#503)

Description
This System Programming procedure identifies a button on the system phone at
extension 10 to be used to turn Night Service on and off. When Night Service is
on, all lines assigned to the phones of the users in the Night Service Group ring
immediately, regardless of their normal Line Ringing settings.
Night Service is useful if you want phones to ring after regular business hours.
For example, although Shipping Department workers do not answer calls
directly during the day, you want them to answer incoming calls after hours.
Related Features
Night Service affects only the extensions identified using Night Service
Group Extensions (#504).
If you program a System Password (#403), the password must be entered
when turning Night Service on or off. In addition, when Night Service is on,
users in the Night Service Group can dial only numbers on the Emergency
Phone Number List (#406) and Marked System Speed Dial Numbers
without entering the System Password. Night Service with a System
Password is useful for controlling unauthorized use of phones after hours.
If you have a voice messaging system, VMS Hunt Schedule (#507)
determines when outside calls should ring the VMS Hunt Group (always,
day only, or night only) depending on the status of the Night Service button
at extension 10, which tells the voice messaging system to operate in day or
night mode.
Considerations
A Night Service button must be programmed on the system phone at
extension 10.
Night Service must be programmed on a button with lights. This feature
does not work if it is programmed on a button without lights.
A user in the Night Service Group can receive an after-hours outside call
only if it comes in on a line that is assigned to that user's phone.
(Extensions in the Night Service group can have different line assignments.)
Dialing restrictions for extensions not in the Night Service Group remain the
same as during normal daytime operation.
If you reassign the Night Service button, it is removed from the button where
it was previously assigned.
