With Time of Day Routing, your company can take advantage of lower calling
rates during specific times. If your company has locations in different time zones,
you can maximize the use of your public or private network facilities by utilizing
those in the location that has the lowest calling rates at the particular time a call is
made. You can also use this feature to change the routing patterns when an
office is closed and to eliminate unauthorized calls. You can set up eight sepa-
rate time of day charts to control routing at different times of the day.
