Examples of Overriding the Calendar Event Name or Category in a Hierarchy

You can create a calendar event using the name or category that makes sense to the most people in the organization or geography. You can then override the name or category at lower levels of the hierarchy, as appropriate.

Calendar Event Name

You set up the May Day calendar event for all locations in your enterprise. But, you want people in France to see the event as Labor Day.

  1. On the Calendar Event page, select the France location node on your geographical hierarchy.
  2. To enter a new name for the event, click the Override icon.

Calendar Event Category

You linked the Good Friday calendar event with the Public Holiday event category and applied the coverage to all departments in your enterprise. But for your finance department, you want to change the event category to a voluntary holiday.

  1. On your organization hierarchy, select the Finance node.
  2. To select a different category, click the Override icon.
