When an extension is a member of a Night Service group and Night
Service is activated, calls received at the extension are forwarded to
extensions by using Forward and Follow Me but are not forwarded to
outside or non-local telephone numbers when Remote Call Forwarding is
used.
In Release 6.1 or later (Hybrid/PBX mode only), if the operator in charge
of Night Service forwards calls to an outside number or a non-local
extension, calls are not forwarded to that number or extension.
In Release 2.0 and later systems, a calling group can be a Night Service
group member. If a calling group is used as a Night Service member, no
other calling groups or extensions are allowed to be Night Service
members.
In Release 6.1 and later systems (Hybrid/PBX mode only), a calling group
receiving Night Service calls may contain a non-local extension as its only
member.
HotLine extensions (Release 5.0 and later systems) can be members of
Night Service groups. If a HotLine extension dials an outside call and
Night Service with Outward Restriction is on, either the HotLine extension
number must be in the Night Service Exclusion List or the number it dials
must be on the Night Service Emergency List.
The Automated Attendant service can be used for Night Service
operation. The necessary system programming options can be set
through Integrated Administration.
An MFM can be a member of a Night Service group. An external alert
connected to the MFM in Supplemental Alert Adapter (SAA) operation,
when assigned to a Night Service group, can be used for supplemental
ringing for after-hours calls.
A line/trunk jack programmed for Music on Hold cannot be assigned to a
Night Service group.
A line/trunk jack programmed as a Loudspeaker Paging port cannot be
assigned to a Night Service group.
If the voice mail calling group is assigned as a member of a Night Service
group, incoming lines receive Automated Attendant treatment. When a
call is answered by the Night Service group, ringing does not occur at an
extension with that personal line and the Night Service coverage is used
instead of the principal user's coverage.
By using Pickup, a user at another extension can answer a call ringing at
a Night Service group extension.
A PRI B-channel can be assigned to a Night Service group if the Routing
by Line Appearance option is assigned to the B-channel group. If routing
by dial plan is assigned to the B-channel group, the B-channels in that
group cannot be assigned to Night Service groups.
