Dial plan schema group
----------------------

.. tip:: 

   :ref:`use-action-search-to-navigate-automate`


This procedure bundles a set of schemas to form a custom dial plan.
You can clone one of default Type 1 to Type 4 schema groups to use as a starting
point to create your own dial plan schema group.


1. Log in to Automate as Provider or Reseller admin. 
2. Go to **Dial Plan Schema Group**. 
3. From the list of dial plan schema groups, select the schema group to be cloned.              

.. note::

   There may be duplicate dial plan schema groups in the list because some of the
   dial plan schema groups may have been auto-cloned to the Provider hierarchy node.
   For more information, see *Auto-Cloning of Dial Plan Schemas and Schema Groups
   to the Provider Hierarchy Node*.           

4. From the **General** tab, enter a new unique name for the cloned dial plan
   schema group in the Dial Plan Schema Group Name field.                                        
5. Optionally, add a description of the new cloned dial plan schema group in the
   **Description** field.              
6. Modify or add site defaults, core schemas, feature schemas, country schemas,
   or custom workflows as required by clicking on the appropriate tab as follows:  

   a. From the **Site Defaults** tab, modify site defaults. For more information
      on site defaults, refer to Modify Site Defaults.                                

      .. note::

         If a site defaults doc (SDD) for a site is based on ``CUSTOMER_TEMPLATE``,
         then any empty values set under this tab will *not* result in empty
         values being set in the site dial plan. Values that are set on the
         **General** tab in the ``CUSTOMER_TEMPLATE``  will be applied instead.

   b. From the **Core Schemas** tab, modify the fields. Select a trigger event
      from the Dial Plan Schema Usage drop-down menu, then select the hierarchical
      level for the core schema in the Dial Plan Schema Scope drop-down menu.
      For a description of the trigger events, refer to Default Dial Plan Event
      Triggers. From the Dial Plan Schema Name drop-down menu, select the schema
      that will be triggered by the event. This drop-down list includes all default
      and created schemas from the Create Schemas procedure.           
   c. From the **Feature Schemas** tab, modify the fields. Select a trigger event
      from the Dial Plan Schema Usage drop-down menu, then select the hierarchical    
      level for the feature schema in the Dial Plan Schema Scope drop-down menu.
      For a description of the trigger events, refer to Default Dial Plan Event     
      Triggers. From the Dial Plan Schema Name drop-down menu, select the feature
      schema that will be triggered by the event. This drop-down list includes  
      all default and created feature schemas from the Create Schemas procedure.                            
   d. From the **Country Schemas** tab, modify the fields as required. For
      desired country schemas, select a trigger event from the Dial Plan Schema
      Usage drop-down menu, then select the country dial plan from the Country Name
      drop-down menu. Select the hierarchical level for the country schema in the     
      Dial Plan Schema Scope drop-down menu. For a description of the trigger events,
      refer to Default Dial Plan Event Triggers. From the Dial Plan Schema Name
      drop-down menu, select the country-specific schema that will be triggered
      by the event. This drop-down list includes all default and created schemas
      from the Create Schemas procedure.           
   e. From the **Custom Workflows** tab, modify event workflows. From the Dial Plan
      Event drop-down menu, select an event trigger for your workflow. Contact   
      Advanced Services if you require an event trigger that is not in the list.
      For a description of the trigger events, refer to Default Dial Plan Event     
      Triggers. From the Workflow drop-down menu, select the custom workflow to
      execute when the dial plan event is triggered.                                  
7. Click **Save**. The new dial plan schema group appears in the list of groups.
