Dialpad allows admins to set business hours for their main line, departments, and contact centers. To set normal business hours, go to Admin Settings on Dialpad.com, navigate to the desired location, and select Business Hours. Choose when calls should be received and set the timezone, opening time, closing time, and days of operation. For split business hours, follow the same steps but also select Add Hours to create multiple periods of availability for each day. These periods can be applied to multiple days or customized as needed.
