The Scheduled Search feature allows you to automate and run the search results. This will be run every time you log into the TFNRegistry™ or as specified by you. This feature enables you to automatically reserve a Toll-Free Number (TFN) whenever the specified scheduled search is run and a spare TFN has been found. You will be notified through email (i.e. your email address that is located in the User Control (URC) page). You can login to the account and reserve the spare TFN. To schedule the recurring search, you must provide the following information:
- Date and time to start
