# Calendar Example

When you navigate to the Calendar functionality for the first time, a default system calendar is already defined. However, no working days or times have been specified. You can use the system calendar to define your working hours and exceptions. However, you can also define base and overlay calendars which you can use to define working hours and calculate deadlines for locations in different time zones, organizational units with different working hours, and so on.

For example, if your company is based in several time zones, then you may wish to configure your calendars as follows:

1. Amend the System calendar to specify the working days and times for your organization. See Displaying the Calendar.
2. Specify the calendar alias to be used when defining your processes in TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition .
3. Create a base calendar for each organizational entity whose hours differ from the standard working hours and times. See Creating Base Calendars.
4. Map the base calendars to the organizational entity, ensuring you specify an alias for the mapping. See Assigning Calendars to Organizational Entities.
5. Create an overlay calendar for any exclusions, if required. You may want more than one overlay calendar, depending on how many exclusions you have. See Creating Overlay Calendars.
6. Map the overlay calendars to the organizational entity, ensuring you specify an alias for the mapping. See Assigning Calendars to Organizational Entities.
