Each project can have its own calendar. The project calendar that you specify can be used to override the company calendar, or you can use the company calendar for the project.
If there is no project calendar, or a project calendar is not in use, the company-level standard calendar marked as the default calendar (Company Calendar (Default)) is the calendar that is used by the project.
The project calendars can be based on:
- Standard calendars created at the company level
- Custom Calendars created for the specific project
The project calendar you create applies only to the project for which you create that calendar. The calendar selected affects project durations and due dates. For example, companies can have multiple projects in different countries that have different working and non-working days. These working and non-working days must be considered when determining such time-driven factors as business process workflow due dates and activity dates in schedule sheets.Note: Unless otherwise specified, the default calendar for a project is the company calendar that is marked as default at the company level.
