You can create customized calendars to define work time intervals. You can use the calendars as input for dedicated operators in time-related calculations. When using factory calendars, only the specified work times are considered in these time-related calculations.

Available work time calendar types:

Weekday calendar

A weekday calendar defines the working time for weekdays.

For each weekday, you can configure what should be considered as work time on that day. You can add several intervals per day, which should not overlap. The specified times are local times without time zone information. MONDAY, 09:00, 17:00 means, for example, that the time between 9:00 and 17:00 on mondays is considered as work time in calculations.

Note that the number of work time intervals in a week day calendar is limited. The default value of this limit is set to 70 intervals per calendar. When the limit is exceeded, the user is informed and the configuration cannot be saved.

Workday calendar

A workday calendar defines for each day of the year whether it is workday or not. You must therefore specify strings with the values 0 and 1 for each month for which you want to configure the work time. The value 1 means that the time between 0:00 (inclusive) on the corresponding day and 0:00 the next day (exclusive) is considered as work time. The value 0 or a non-existent value means that there is no work time on the corresponding day.

The workday calendar type is based on the SAP TFACS table (SAP Factory calendar).

Note that the number of years specified in a work day calendar is limited. The default value of this limit is set to 40 years per calendar. When the limit is exceeded, the user is informed and the configuration cannot be saved.

Factory calendar

With a factory calendar, you can define work time intervals that do not follow any regularity. To define a single interval, you must specify the start and end time of the interval. Specifying the interval 2024-02-28T08:00, 2024-02-28T17:00 means, for example, that the time between 8:00 on February 28, 2024 and 17:00 on the same day should be considered as work time. The specified date time values do not contain any time zone information and are interpreted in the time zone of the operator.
