With this feature, POM restricts outbound dialing on specified days. The three types of holidays are country, state, and campaign. POM supports the MM/DD/YY date format to specify the holiday range.
There are a maximum of 20 holidays of each type (country, state, and campaign) that you can configure in POM.
The holiday configuration feature supports the following types of holiday restrictions:
Temporary Restriction:
In temporary restriction, POM resumes outbound dialing after the restriction period ends.
For example, if January 1 is a holiday, POM attempts dialing after January 1 changes to January 2.
As the campaign level holiday is temporary, POM resumes dialing after the end of the temporary restriction criteria.
Permanent Restriction:
In permanent restriction, POM stops dialing on the day specified as a holiday. POM does not attempt dialing again.
For example, if December 25 is a recurring holiday, POM does not dial after December 25.
When you set a campaign-level holiday, POM dials the contacts simultaneously. After dialing a few contacts, when POM identifies that a holiday is set for the campaign level, POM stops dialing.
