Create Calendar

Explanation

Use this activity to define the parameters and rules for a calendar from Calendar or Calendars overview page. This mandatory activity is to be performed by a system administrator or equivalent person.

A calendar is defined as a set of schedules and an optional schedule exception. Calendars define the working days and are attached to sites in IFS.

Each calendar must have at least one connected schedule. Schedules cannot be overlapping. All days that are not covered by a schedule, either before or after the first or last schedule date, or between different schedules, are considered non-work days. A schedule exception can be added in Exception field and it describes exceptions from the normal schedule or schedules. 

Before a calendar can be used, it must be generated. A generated calendar is used by other components to describe working hours.  Generarated Calendars command can be used to view the generated calendar on a day basis. More Detailed view can be obtained by using Generated Calendar Details.

Note: Schedules cannot be connected in the Calendars
