Specify a future date and time or choose a specified duration, ranging from 5 to 60 minutes, until you are prompted to contact the customer. When using a specific date and time, choose either the contact's time zone or your own. Commitments can be edited, rescheduled, or deleted by clicking on the commitment in the Schedule tab.
