Calendar Aliases

You must define aliases for your calendars. TIBCO Active Matrix BPM uses aliases when identifying which calendar should be used for an organizational entity.

If no aliases are defined then TIBCO Active Matrix BPM uses the system calendar. This means that if you want an organizational entity to use a specific base or overlay calendar then you must map them to the organizational entity and specify the calendar alias as part of the mapping.

Note: You can also create a new calendar alias or modify an existing alias when you map a calendar to an organizational entity. The alias does not have to exist before you define the mapping. See Assigning Calendars to Organizational Entities.

Note that:

  • You can define as many aliases as you like.
  • The calendar’s name can be used as an alias.
  • The system calendar can have an alias.
  • A calendar can have more than one alias.
  • You cannot map a calendar alias to more than one calendar. For example assume you have an alias called UK mapped to a calendar called Call Centre UK and you remap the UK alias to a calendar called Returns UK, TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM removes the mapping between the UK alias and Call Centre UK and instead maps the UK alias to the calendar called Returns UK.
  • You can add, modify or delete an alias.
