What is the Wake Up Calls Module?
The Wake Up Calls module allows users to generate a hotel style wake up call for their extension.
How does the Wake Up Calls Module interact with other modules?
The module creates a feature code (*68) that can be used to dial in and create a wake up call
Overview
The Wake Up Calls module can be used to schedule a reminder or wake up call to any valid destination. To schedule a call, dial the feature code assigned in the FreePBX Feature Codes module (default is *68) or use the form in the GUI interface. You can also enable an operator mode that allows you to have operators schedule wake up calls for other extensions or destinations.
