Problem: How to create new Work Days Calendar?
Solution: Use system settings to edit or create a new Work Days Calendar as shown.
Work Days Calendar contains information about work days, days off, and holidays in each year.
It is used to set Work Schedules and calculate payroll automatically.
1. To access Work Day Calendar, go to HR & Payroll > See Also > Work Days Calendar.
There is a Production Calendar, that may be changed according to some needs, or a new calendar or groups of calendars may be created.
Click on Create option to create a new Work Days Calendar and a dialog box will appear.
2. Fill the box with description and set a year in which changes needs to be applied or start of this calendar.
3. Select a workweek scheme using the Reset button - the chosen scheme is populated for the whole year automatically.
There are three workweek schemes:
Su-Th: working days Sunday through Thursday, weekends Friday through Saturday
Mo-Fr: working days Monday through Friday, weekend Saturday through Sunday
St-Th: working days Saturday through Thursday, Friday is day off
4. If some other scheme is required, then it's possible to set in manually.
Double-click on some date to establish working day or holiday: black color is used for working day, red color is used for holiday.
Set national holidays and other non-working days in the same way - with double click.
5. Make changes for the years ahead, clicking the year, to avoid errors in payroll calculations.
6. Save changes. Now there are two calendars in the system.
7. The required work calendar should be according to the requirement i.e. in Entities, Departments or Employee schedule (Work Schedule).
