A few questions regarding Call Queues and Auto Attendant
I noticied that our Call queue no longer states "in preview" is it safe to say it is productopn mode? We currently have a thrid party host our VOIP services so even though our users are all clou...
- Mar 30, 2017Maybe You can try This
Create Three AA and Two Call Queues
AA1-Toronto
AA2-Calgary
AA3-AfterHours
CQ1-Toronto
CQ2-Calgary
Set them like this
AA1-Toronto
Business hours 8am to 5PM
Business hour call handling would go to CQ1-Toronto
Afterhours Redirect this call to AA2-Calgary
This way any call made to AA1-toronto during 8am to 5PM EST will be answered by CQ1-Toronto
Any call after hours will just go to AA2-Calgary
So after 5PM EST till 5PM PST all calls for Toronto will go to AA2-Calgary and the CQ2-Calgary
AA2-Calgary
Business Hours 8am to 5PM MST
Business hours call handling will go to CQ2-Calgary
After Hours the call will be forwarded to AA3-Afterhours
AA3-Afterhours
Business Hours will be Only 8am to 10am EST
Business hour call handling will go to CQ1-Toronto
Afterhours Redirect this call to after-hours service.
I believe the above may help you achieve what you like but I agree it Is not a great/simple method.
One issue with the above is you would need to create three OrgAA's, Two Call Queues. And you won't have separate mailboxes for Toronto and Calgary for after hour messaging.
Not sure if it helps but thought I'd suggest.

Mar 29, 2017For your first question
During Preview and at GA we will only support pure online tenants, i.e. with no shared SIP domains defined, and where the Auto Attendants and Call Queues and all targets and agents are homed online
This mean that we will not be supporting split-domain/shared topologies including having Auto Attendants or Call Queues created in SIP domains shared between Skype for Business Online and Skype for Business On-premises deployment or having targets or agents using Cloud PBX with on-premises PSTN connectivity (OPCH) or Cloud Connector Edition (CCE).
Some of these topologies might appear to work, but there are many corner cases, where they don’t, and that’s why we are not ready to support them at GA.
For the second part
I am not sure if i understood your scenario completely but wouldn't it work if you just schedule your AA business hours to include the extended hours as well?

Do we have an estimated date as to when the auto attendants and call queues will be avalable i a shared domain/ hybrid environment?
