Business calendars allow contact center administrators to define the working hours of the business and the public holidays. Users can create calendars per site and define working shift timings, exceptional openings, and public holidays for each site. When a call comes in, the calendar API checks the calendar events in the following order of precedence:

  • Exception: Check if there’s any exceptional opening or closing event on the calendar.

  • Holiday: Checks if there’s a holiday event added to the calendar.

  • Active Hours: Checks if the contact center is Active

Calendar Shifts Schedule

Each incoming request is treated based on the response returned by the calendar API. 

Multiple shift schedules allow businesses to define different shift schedules for instance, for Winters and Summers.
