IFaxServer::put_DiscountRateEndMinute

The IFaxServer::put_DiscountRateEndMinute method changes the DiscountRateEndMinute property for a FaxServer object. The DiscountRateEndMinute property is a number that represents the minute the discount period ends. The discount period applies only to outgoing fax transmissions.

Visual Basic Reference

HRESULT put_DiscountRateEndMinute(
  SHORT newVal  // new value for minute discount rate ends
);

Parameters

newVal
[in] Specifies the new value to assign to the DiscountRateEndMinute property. Valid values for this parameter are 0 through 59.

Return Values

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.

Remarks

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.
