Outbound Campaign Dialer StartStop Tab Options
The Dialer Start / Stop tab fields let you configure when the dialer will make calls. You can determine a default calling schedule for the dialer as well as specify blackout periods when you do not want the dialer to call.
Dialer Time Zone
If the uploaded leads file provides a local timezone for the lead, then the dialer settings will assume that timezone. For example, if a lead's timezone is 8 (Pacific Standard Time) and the dialer is set between 6:00PM and 8:00PM, then the lead will be dialed between 6PM and 8PM PST. If no timezone is provided, then the dialer assumes EST.
