[asterisk-users] Re: By week extension dialing

Using the asterisk database and a crontab will get what I want done.

Thank you all for your replies.

My take was that this is not for automated calls, but that extension "y"
should forward to a deferent number each week.
I assume an on call scenario.

Our workaround for this was to keep our old apha-pager and manually hand
this from tech to tech.
This makes exceptions due to time off, etc. easier to manage as well.
