Schedules
Schedules are used for common definitions of time, which are then applied to multiple groups under multiple circumstances. A schedule stipulates when a flow runs, based upon the date, time, or event. You can define schedules to handle recurring events, holidays, or special situations, such as your regular business hours or after-hours support.
Architect uses schedules to determine how to manage inbound and outbound interaction routing. For example, a schedule can determine which flow to execute during open or closed hours.
To manage schedules for the organization, click Admin. Under Routing, click Scheduling. On the Schedules page, you can view the list of currently active schedules and their recurrence type.
