The On Call List component (AX-3.5 and later) is designed to contain a set of one or more On Call Contacts. You can create, edit, or delete unique On Call Lists from the On Call List Manager view. After creating an On Call List, it appears under the OnCallService node in the nav pane, as shown below. It is also available as an option on the Event Output property in the On Call List Schedule’s Scheduler view, where you may select it as a scheduled event.
Like other scheduled outputs, you can assign more than one On Call List to a single day. The On Call List is active only during the scheduled day and time. The On Call List active status is displayed in the On Call List property sheet view as well as in the On Call List Manager view.
When assigning On Call List events in the Scheduler view, make sure On Call List event times are contiguous.
The On Call List component has the following properties, visible in the property sheet view:
-
Status
This display-only property indicates the condition of the component. For example:
ok,down,disabledare possible status conditions. -
Active
This property displays either Active or Inactive, according to its current state, as defined by the On Call List Schedule. Only one On Call List is active at a time.
-
Last Fault Cause
This read-only field displays the reason for the latest On Call List fault, if there has been one.
-
Ordinal
This read-only field is a unique identifier for the particular On Call List. The OnCallService tracks the next free ordinal number.
