This applies to version 14 of your PBX GUI

The calendar module in PBX 14 helps to leverage advanced time-based conditions which would be difficult to implement in time groups/time conditions. Such as easter holidays.

The calendar module is able to connect to various services or you can create your own local calendar.

You can then use this calendar functionality to enable time conditions, schedule automatic pages, enable/disable find me follow me base on a schedule and more. Over time more of your PBX modules will be able to utilize the Calendar Module to perform date/time base actions.

You could also add a Google calendar and let the office staff manage their own time condition rules through google without needing to go into the PBX gui.
