TIBCO® BPM Enterprise 5.5.0

# Calendar Aliases (References)

TIBCO BPM Enterprise uses calendar aliases at runtime to identify the calendars that should be used. With Calendar aliases, you can take into consideration the varying work patterns across the organization. By default, if no calendar alias is mapped, TIBCO BPM Enterprise uses the system calendar.

Note: Calendar aliases are called “references” in TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition and TIBCO BPM Enterprise.

A calendar reference is assigned in TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition. Perform the following steps to use different calendars from the system calendar:

- Specify the calendar reference to be used when defining your processes in TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition.
- You can create a calendar alias in the following ways:
  - using the Calendar Aliases option in the left collapsible pane of the Calendar capability. See Calendar Aliases.
  - when you map the calendar to an organizational entity. See Assigning Calendars to Organizational Entities.
- Map the calendar to an organization entity, making sure you specify the calendar alias when defining the mapping.

Note the following considerations about the Calendar Aliases:

- If an alias is not present in TIBCO BPM Enterprise, you can still create a calendar reference in your process. You can specify an alias in TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition and then create it in TIBCO BPM Enterprise. See Calendar Aliases.
- A calendar can have more than one alias.
- You can map a calendar to multiple organizational entities using the same alias.
- You can remap aliases to organizational entities at any time.
  Note: TIBCO BPM Enterprise uses the latest calendar mapping. So if you remap a calendar while a process is deployed, then it does not adversely affect the process.
