Request for a more advanced alerting schedule

Question

Currently the alert schedule only schedules when to enable an alert.  Therefore, if there is a day where i need it enabled all day with the exception of a few hours in the middle of the day, I would have to create multiple copies of the alert with only a different schedule to accomplish this.  If there were and enable and disable option for all days it would be much easier to schedule alerts.  See example below:

It would be great if black out periods ("maint window") for alerting can be more flexible, ie: 1st monday of every month. This would allow us to exclude generator testing periods which are mandated in hospitals.

If you want a different time period for each day, you are right you would need to create multiple alerts.  I have added this as a feature request for consideration in the future.
