Our freePBX system uses 3 time conditions, which set the route for the incoming calls (main company number).
- *271 24h-service
- *272 holiday
- *273 standard business hours
TC1 non-match links to TC2, which in case of a non-match links to TC3.
TimeCondition 1 and 2 are connected to online calendars using the new calendar module. TimeCondition 3 uses a TimeGroup (Mo-Fr 8-18h, Sa 8-12h). The holiday online calendar generates Austrian holiday dates and the 24h-service-calendar contains, in our case, a 24h-event every 9th day.
Based on this setting with these 3 TimeConditions, one can cover almost all possible scenarios. A 24h-service-event overrules both other time conditions. A holiday-event overrules the standard-business-hours.
Now…the problem!
It is not possible to monitor the freePBX phone system with multiple time conditions. Are we open or are we closed? You cant tell…
I don’t know how to write a php script, therefore I used the script from lgaetz ( https://gist.github.com/lgaetz/8545099 ) and adapted it.
This is my current script. It gives you the following outputs in the terminal (which can be used to display it on a phone): 24h-service, holiday, we are open, we are closed
