Time of Day Step

Use the Time of Day step to cause the script to branch to different connection branches depending on the current time of day.

Time of Day Customizer Window

Steps that you add following a specific output branch will execute if the Cisco Unified CCX Engine clock indicates that the time of day matches the time associated with that connection.

You associate each output branch with a specified range of time.

During run time, if the current time falls out of the configured time range, the script follows the Rest output branch of the Time of Day step.

Note

When you debug this step on a remote workstation, the Cisco Unified CCX Editor uses the time zone of the Cisco Unified CCX server where the script is being debugged.

All scripts that use the Time of Day step must be opened, saved, and uploaded again to the Unified CCX system for any changes in the time zone to take effect. This is applicable for any time zone selected other than TZ[primary] or TZ[local].

The following table describes the properties of the Time of Day customizer window:
