Calendar code hierarchy

This topic describes how calendar codes are structured.

Every calendar code can have a parent calendar code that provides default data. Therefore, you only need to specify the exceptions to the parent calendar. Additionally, if a planning process queries a calendar for a date that is outside that calendar's date range, LN uses information from the parent calendar.

Start defining the calendar code with the most generic calendar code. As you define more specific calendar codes, in the Calendar Code (tcccp0110m000) session, in the Parent Calendar field, enter the code of the calendar's parent calendar. You can then use that child calendar code as the parent for another calendar, and so on. When you update the calendar, LN displays the full calendar details in the Calendar Working Hours (tcccp0120m000) session, including the details derived from higher-level calendars.

In a child calendar, you can add additional working times and mark particular dates as unavailable.

Note: Although it is convenient to put the company calendar code at the top of the derivation path, you can also select another calendar.
