2.01.04 Calendar

The Calendar form administers the business calendar of all the locations for the system. Here is where it is possible for every business location to specify the days and hours worked weekly such as the number of workdays per week. This data is needed for the overview and resource planning (especially for the policy of the designated working hours). Furthermore, this is where the parameters for the working hours can be managed.
