Properties

Time Schedule Section

Outputs Section

Time Schedule Section

Use this section to select the CONDUCTOR time schedule to use.

Option

Description

Schedule ID

Enter the ID of the CONDUCTOR schedule that you want to use for routing the caller (a literal value preceded by = , or a string variable as shown below). 

It is recommended that you use a Get Value or Get Values action cell earlier in your script to acquire the parameter for the schedule from CONDUCTOR.

Outputs Section

Use this section to store the CONDUCTOR action and value associated with the matched schedule.

Option

Description

Action

Enter a string variable to store the CONDUCTOR schedule action corresponding to the matched CONDUCTOR schedule.

Value

Enter a string variable to store the CONDUCTOR schedule value associated with the CONDUCTOR schedule action.

To illustrate the use of these properties, consider a situation where a call that is received during your working hours matches a 'RouteToQueue' action with a value indicating the UC call treatment to use, and a call that is received outside your working hours matches a 'ClosedPrompt' action with a value of the prompt ID to use. By storing the CONDUCTOR action and corresponding value in FLOW variables (say, szAction and szValue), you could use the szAction variable in a Select Case action cell to send an 'in hours' caller to a Route to Contact action cell for routing to a UC call treatment/queue, and you could send 'an out-of-hours' caller to a Play Media action cell that plays a 'We are closed' announcement.
