The IFaxServer::get_DiscountRateEndHour method retrieves the DiscountRateEndHour property for a FaxServer object. The DiscountRateEndHour property is a number that represents the hour the discount period ends. The discount period applies only to outgoing fax transmissions.
HRESULT get_DiscountRateEndHour( SHORT *pVal // receives hour discount rate ends );
Returns an HRESULT value indicating success or failure. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns a COM-defined error code.
You should not check directly for success or failure. Use the COM SUCCEEDED and FAILED macros instead.
To save on transmission costs, a user can queue a fax job and request that the fax server send the transmission during the discount rate period. For more information, see IFaxDoc::put_DiscountSend.
The DiscountRateStartHour, DiscountRateStartMinute, DiscountRateEndHour, and DiscountRateEndHour properties represent local time.
If the time the discount rate period ends is less than the time the discount rate period begins, the discount rate period extends into the next day. For example, if the discount rate period begins at 9:00 P.M. and ends at 7:00 A.M., the discount rate period begins in the evening and continues until the morning of the following day.
