Non Working Days Calendar

The purpose of the Non Working Days Calendar page is to create Holidays, Non Working Days, and Working Days. These days can be set at the form (bed), plant, or company level. A Non Working Day is a day that under normal circumstances would producing, but is now not and must be shown as unavailable for production calendar. E.g. a plant must shut down entirely due to safety concerns, or a specific bed is out of commission for a day. The opposite is true for working days. A day that normally would not be producing (e.g. Saturday) is now specified as a Working Day.

You access Non Working Days screen via Configuration menu > System Setup > Non Working Days, shown in Figure 1 below.

Once there, you will notice calendar (see Figure 2). There is a Locations dropdown where you can filter for Non Working Days specific to a plant or form. There are also toggle arrows that let change the year of the calendar you are viewing.
