Example -- In the most common situation:
Weekly Time Table -- With the wide selection of Common Carriers, the
least costly route for a particular area code may be different at different
times of the day. To accommodate this situation, this table and the
Weekly Time Table work together, dividing the day into four possible
time periods. By default these tables are set at the standard divisions of
8AM, 5PM, and 11PM. However, these times can be changed.
Entries in the Daily Start Time table are used to select the time period to
reference in the weekly schedule. Based on the time a call is placed, the
daily start time table selects the time period to choose in the weekly
schedule. The weekly schedule is then used to determine the time period
route list in the Route List Table to use for routing the call for a particular
day of the week. Times are entered in the 24-hour format.

pm, often called Evening Rates.
The remaining time (from 11:00 pm until 8:00 am) is referred to as
night time rates which usually have the biggest discount.
