3.6.4.2 Holiday-handling Preferences for Schedule Dates

If you have specified that the system check for schedule dates falling on holidays, you must also specify the treatment for schedule dates encountered by the system that do fall on holidays.

The following preferences can be set:

• Moving the Schedule Date Backward or Forward

  You can indicate whether the schedule date falling on a holiday must be moved forward to the next working day, or backward to the previous one.

• Moving Across Months

  If you have indicated either forward or backward movement, and the moved schedule date crosses over into a different month, you can indicate whether such movement is allowable; it will be allowable only if you indicate so in the Move Across Months field.

• Cascading Schedules

  If one schedule has been moved backward or forward in view of a holiday, cascading schedules would mean that the other schedules are accordingly shifted. If you do not want to cascade schedules, then only the schedule falling on a holiday is shifted, as specified, and the others remain as they were.
