•The Day of Week tab sets the day(s) of the week during which screening instructions are in effect (regardless of any time of day settings). For example, you can use this tab to handle weekend calls.
•The Until tab sets the screening instructions that are always used (regardless of the time of day and day of week settings) until the date specified by the month/day/year. For example, you can use this table to handle calls when you are traveling or on vacation.
•The Always tab directs the SIP Multimedia PC Client to screen at all times of the day, days of the week, indefinitely.
