How do I create a workday calendar for a warehouse?

2

To create a workday calendar you need to do the following:

  • Go to Calendar Definitions and create a new calendar to serve as your workday calendar.
  • Go to Calendar Event Definitions and create an event(s) on your new calendar with Type = Event, Calendar Event Category = Workday, Busy = False, and All Day = True.
  • Go to the Planning page in Product Data Management Settings and set your new calendar as the Workday Calendar Name and fill out the Workday Start Time and Standard Work Hours.

The Workday Start Time and Standard Work Hours fields are used for any calculations related to workdays. The calendar events marked as all day are just to denote the day when work occurs.

Alternatively, if there is no Workday Calendar specified on the Product Data Management, then every day is considered a workday with 24 hour availability in calculations related to workdays.
