Setting Holidays on Phone System

This is a walkthrough to adding holidays in the bvoip's phone system.

Setting Holidays on the Phone System

As holidays and days of recognition can vary for every client, the bvoip portal allows the ability to customize the holiday options as desired.

This article will provide a insight for creating the holiday in the phone system. However, if you are looking to set up the holiday to operate off of an auto-attendant, please refer to our Setting Holiday Hours Functionality article.
