Custom Notification Interval?

Hi,
Is it possible to set a custom interval? For example, we would like to set up alerting to only happen during the hours of 6:00pm-> 5:15pm on the next day. We do not care about 5:16pm->5:59pm.
I haven't been able to track down a way to do it...
Thank you.

Have you taken a look at this page?

This may be the right direction.

Just to confirm that I understand the functionality:
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name nonworkours
alias Non-Work Hours
sunday 00:00-24:00 ; Every Sunday of every week
monday 17:16-17:59
tuesday 17:16-17:59
wednesday 17:16-17:59
thursday 17:16-17:59
friday 17:16-17:59
saturday 00:00-24:00 ; Every Saturday of every week
}
and I would then configure notification_period to 'nonworkhours'?
Thanks again.

That sounds backwards, I would setup the times something like this
Code: Select all
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name workhours
alias Work Hours
monday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
tuesday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
wednesday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
thursday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
friday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
}
and then configure notification_period to 'workhours'?
