Calendars
Large organizations and multinationals usually consist of multiple subsidiaries and regional branches. This can give rise to a great diversity in working days and opening and closing hours within the organization. Even within a single office building, the various reservable units may have different opening and closing times. This constitutes a challenge for the facilities management department that wants to implement and enforce company-wide rules for opening hours or cleaning hours.
The Calendars TSI in Planon ProCenter helps to overcome problems that may ensue from local differences, by enabling you to configure multiple calendars.
| Although the Calendars TSI is part of Planon's System settings, your navigation panel may have been configured differently. You can quickly find the TSI by entering 'calendar' or 'company calendar' in the search bar under the Planon logo. |
It is mandatory to configure at least 1 calendar. One of those calendars must be designated as the default or company calendar. Any derived subcalendars can subsequently be linked to business objects such as properties and reservation units to allow for any differences between countries / regions / branches or reservation units. After that, the system will be ‘aware’ of the differences in working days and working hours.
