A call forwarding service is accessible through a common service management system
using a graphical user interface (GUI) via the Internet and an interactive voice
response system via the public switched telephone network. Using the GUI, the subscriber
builds and edits service data, including a screening list and weekly schedule.
The GUI displays a forward-to number field and multiple activation fields. The
call forwarding service is activated in response to an ON indication of a first
activation field, implementing call forwarding functionality to forward calls to
the forward-to number; the screening list is activated in response to an ON indication
of a second activation field, forwarding only calls from the listed telephone numbers
to the forward-to number; and the weekly schedule is activated in response to an
ON indication of a third activation field, enabling the call forwarding functionality
only during the listed time periods.
