Overlay Calendars
Overlay calendars define non-working time exclusions (for example, public holidays) which can be applied to one or more base calendars at runtime. You should use overlay calendars for exclusions that are repeated over a defined period, like a regular company meeting.
An overlay calendar is timezone-neutral, and so inherits the time zone from the base calendar it is applied to.
Note the following considerations before using the Overlay Calendar:
- You must map an overlay calendar to an organizational entity.
Note: Overlay calendars cannot be mapped to resources.
- Overlay calendars are mapped to organizational units using their alias. You can define an alias either,
- before you map an overlay calendar to an organizational entity, or
- when mapping an overlay calendar to an organizational entity.
- An overlay calendar can be mapped to multiple organizational entities.
- An organizational entity can only have one overlay calendar applied to it at any time.
- You can remap an overlay calendar to a different organizational entity 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.
