How do I view and change the working and non-working hours or days for a call flow in MyOperator?

⚡Quick answer -

You can view and update the working hours and days for any call flow directly from the Design Callflow section in your MyOperator panel.
Go to Call → Design Callflow → Select your call flow → Edit → Adjust schedule (working hours, working days, and holiday rules) → Preview → Publish.


BEFORE YOU START (PREREQUISITES)

Make sure you have the following ready before making changes:

  • ✅ You are logged in to your MyOperator account with “Call” or “Design Callflow” permissions.
  • ✅ You know the call flow name or ID you want to modify.
  • ✅ If using holiday-based schedules, have your holiday callflow ready.
  • ✅ Recommended: Make schedule changes during low-traffic hours or in a staging/test call flow, if possible.

Alt text: Advanced mode

3. Update Working Hours & Days

  • Under the Call Routing Rules section, edit the Schedule and Route type
  • Set the Start Time and End Time (e.g., 09:00 AM → 06:00 PM).
  • Select the Working Days checkboxes (e.g., Mon–Fri).

To set weekend or alternate schedules:

  • Click Add Schedule and select different days (e.g., Sat–Sun with shorter hours).

To handle holidays:
For Holiday/Override, create a separate call flow and publish it a day in advance. Do not delete your existing call flow; instead, save it as a draft. Once the holiday period is over, simply republish your previous call flow to resume normal operations.


🧩 Examples:

Simple Callflow Example:

Start Time: 09:00 AM

End Time: 06:00 PM

Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Advanced Callflow Example:

Rule 1: Mon–Fri → 09:00–18:00 → Route A (Main Team)

Rule 2: Sat → 10:00–14:00 → Route B (Weekend Support)

Holiday Override: 25 Dec 2025 → Closed → Route to Voicemail


4. Preview the Schedule

  • Click Preview to simulate a call at a specific time/day.
  • You’ll see how calls will be routed based on your schedule — ideal for verifying before going live.


5. Save and Publish

Once satisfied:

  • Click Save Changes → then Publish to make them live.
  • You can discard or cancel if you wish to revert before publishing.


WHAT HAPPENS AFTER PUBLISHING

  • Changes take effect immediately for all new incoming calls.
  • Ongoing calls in progress will not be affected.
  • Each change is logged in the System Log (includes user, timestamp, and activities summary).
