Defining Exceptions to the Business Calendar

This topic describes the procedure for defining exceptions to your business calendar.

Before you begin this task:


You can define exceptions to your business calendar by importing exceptions from an iCal formatted file or by performing the steps listed below.

  1. Select a starting point and click (Calendar Exceptions) to open an existing calendar exception.
  2. Do any one of the following:
    • Click to import an existing iCal. The Ical Import Wizard - Calendar Exceptions dialog appears. Click to select and import an existing iCal from the system where Process Platform is installed, select required date range and click Finish. The selected iCal is imported to the Calendar Exceptions list. Refer Ical Import Wizard Calendar Exceptions Interface for information on the fields in the Ical Import Wizard - Calendar Exceptions dialog.
    • Click (Insert) and enter Date, select the Non working day checkbox, enter Start Time, End Time and appropriate Description. After selecting a non working day, the Start Time and End Time fields are disabled. So, the Start Time and End Time can be entered only if it is a working day. You can now link them to your business calendar.
      Note:
  • You may specify the Date by typing it in or by clicking the calendar icon.
  • You can define only one exception for a specific date.
  • When you define an exception for a specific date, the default working pattern for that date is ignored.
  • The time that you enter on this screen is interpreted using the time zone defined at Time Zone Settings.
