Hi,
I work for a company in STL that uses asterisk to put VoIP into businesses. We are trying to set up a after hours Time Condition/Time Groups to set up an after hours time schedules for people being on call. Heres the logic:
Inbound Call -> Time Condition (OfficeHoursWithOnCall)
Time Group: Biz Hours Time Start 7 - 18 mon - fri
Matches -> RingGroup (regular phone Ext)
Doesn’t Match -> Time Condition (mondayAfterhours)
Time Group: mondayAfterHours Time Start 18-7 Mon-tues
Matches: Ring Group mondayAfterHours( goes to some ones cell phone)
Doesn’t Match: Time Condition (tuesdayAfterHours)
Time Group: tuesdayAfterHours Time Start 18-7 Tues-wed
Matches: Ring Group tuesdayAfterHours( goes to some one elses cell phone)
Doesn’t Match: Time Condition (wednesdayAfterHours)
And so and and so forth.
Everyday there is someone else’s cell phone its suppose to go to. The problem we are having is that its always a day ahead. I.E. On tuesday after hours schedule its been ringing the Monday afterHours ring group and goes to the wrong cell phone.
We saw a pattern when we did a time condition for labor day, and it started a day earlier than what it was suppose to be. The senario here was they were leaving Thursday night at 5 and wouldn’t be back til the following Wednesday in the morning.
Incoming Call -> Time Condition (laborDay)
Time Group: Labor Day Time Start 17 - 8
Week Start Thursday - Wednesday
Month Start 30-5 Aug - Sept
Matches: Announcement(labor day - saying theyll be back on wed sept 5)
Doesn’t Match: Time Condition (Regular Biz Hours)
The Problem was that it started going back to the regular biz hours on the 4th at 8 am.
Is there some kind of bug in asterisk? Is there a better way to make this tree? Some advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
