Exclusions in Calendars

Calendar exclusions are exclusions from a standard working day. You can define exclusions in both your base calendars and your overlay calendars, depending on your requirements.

  • You can create exclusions directly in your system or base calendars. These can be both one-off events that do not occur all the time, for example, an unexpected company meeting or exclusions that repeat over a defined period of time.
  • Create overlay calendars for exclusions that repeat over a defined period of time. For example, you can define such exclusions as:
    • Every Friday from 14:00 to 18:00
    • The first Monday of the month, for the next six months

      These exclusions are defined using a recurrence rule, that sets out how the start date/time of each occurrence of the exclusion is calculated. The rule is given in the standard notation set out in http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5545.
