Setting Up Time Conditions (Schedules)

A time condition is a reusable time-of-day and day-of-week schedule, such as “Business Hours”. You define it once and point inbound routes at it. You manage time conditions in Switchboard under Nova PBX → Call Routing → Time Conditions.

1. Click Add time condition (top-right).
2. Give it a Name (for example, “Business Hours”) and pick the Timezone.
3. Add one or more time ranges, each with a start time, an end time, and the weekdays it applies to.
4. Click Create.
5. On an inbound route, switch the Routing section to Schedule, add a rule that pairs your time condition with a destination, and set the default destination for calls that match no rule (your after-hours path).

Tip

Create your time conditions before you set up the inbound routes that use them. Ranges repeat weekly; there is no date picker for one-off holidays yet.

Saving stages the change on your PBX configuration. Click Apply Changes in the pending-changes banner at the top of Switchboard to push it live.
