Time groups support telephone numbers and feature codes that are routed to different destinations at different times of the day or days of the week. Examples of time groups might be:
Every Saturday and Sunday
Weekday evenings
Every public holiday next year
Each time group is made up of one or more time periods that define when the group is active. The group is active when any of its time periods are active, and a time period is active when all of its criteria are met.
