Calendar integration with external scheduling packages

The Calendars and Periods module contains the functionality to make calendars available to external scheduling packages.

Project

Project uses external scheduling packages for employee planning and equipment planning. The external scheduling package retrieves the calendar data from Calendars and Periods in LN.

To list calendars that you want to make available to external packages, use the Calendars for External Packages (tcccp0181m000) session.

External scheduling packages do not support multiple availability types. For the external scheduling package, LN creates a calendar ID that consists of the following parts:

In the Calendar Parameters (tcccp0100m000) session, in the Default Availability Type for ESP field, enter the default value for the availability type for external scheduling packages.

To make more availability types available to external scheduling packages, use the Calendars for External Packages (tcccp0181m000) session.
