This panel displays the calendar IDs that have been defined to be used within the system. Calendars are used in:
- DC1 Distribution for validation of dispatch and arrival times
- DC1 Manufacturing for production planning
- DC1 Financials for validation of payment days
When the values for working days and non-working days are defined, the calendar has to be created. This is done by clicking Create calendar from the detail panel of a calendar ID. When the calendar is created, you can maintain it here as well as via the Work with calendars menu item. Note: If maintenance of existing calendars is done via this program, you must update the calendar in Work with calendars in order for the calendar to be operational.
When a calendar is created, and not copied from another calendar, the system uses the base calendar, supplied with the DC1 system, from which all days are copied. The base calendar starts with January 1 year 1900, and ends with December 31 year 2099. All days are copied to the new calendar and information about working days and non-working days are updated. Note: The base calendar cannot be maintained.
When a company is generated within the DC1 system, the calendar *DFT is loaded in this program. If you want to use it, you have to define the default values for working days and non-working days, as well as create (generate) it.
