Add an Exception to the Calendar

Calendars are used in dspTrack™ and dspConcut™ components. Refer to Use a Calendar for more information.

When the users assigned to a calendar should work different hours than on a regularly scheduled work day, add a calendar exception.  For example, if regular work hours are 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM for all of the work days on a calendar, but work hours are 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM on December 24, add an exception to the calendar for this date.

To add an exception:

1. Select Common > Tools > Calendar in the Navigation pane.

2. Click Exceptions for a calendar.

   NOTE: If no exceptions exist, the page displays in add mode. Otherwise, click Add.

A Calendar Exception Date can have multiple sets of work hours. However, a set of work hours cannot:

• Overlap the hours of any other set of work hours
• Start during hours already specified
• Have a finish time that is earlier than its corresponding  start time

The finish time for one set of work hours can be identical to the start time of another set.

The following start and finish times are valid work hours for a Calendar Exception Date:
