Organization Hierarchy Decides Calendar Event Coverage

A calendar event applies to people's work assignments according to their position in an organization when the event uses the organizational hierarchy.

For example, you want the Annual Sales Team Outing calendar event to apply to everyone in and below the Sales department in the organization hierarchy. You don't want it to apply to people in the Research department.

You create the organization hierarchy using the Manage Organization Trees task in the Setup and Maintenance work area. It's part of the Workforce Deployment offering, Workforce Structures functional area. You link the organization hierarchy to calendar events when you set the calendar event Hierarchy Type to Organization.
