Add Non-Working Time to a Calendar
Set the Default Schedule for an Organization or a Bucket
Default schedule is the working time configured for the whole organization, division, or for a particular geographic
region. You can add a default schedule at the Organization unit or Bucket level, so that all the child resources inherit it.
Note: There is no such option as 'Default schedule' in the calendar of the top organization unit.
1.
Open Resource Calendar for the organization unit or bucket.
2.
Click the date from which you want to set the default schedule.
3.
In the Schedule field, select a schedule or shift. For example, select 8 to 5.
4.
In the End Date field, select the date on which you want this schedule to end.
5.
Select Keep the Non-working days to retain the non-working days that are defined for this level.
6.
Click Submit.
The option ,Default schedule 8 to 5, is added to the Schedule drop-down list for the child resources of the
selected organization unit or bucket. A default schedule is displayed with a darker color on the calendar, and an
individual schedule is displayed with a lighter color.
Return the Default Schedule to a Resource
If you use the same schedule for the whole organization or for a particular division, everyone in the division
automatically gets the same schedule. If you change the schedule for an individual resource and if those changes are no
longer needed, you can return the resource's schedule to the default schedule.
1.
Go to the Calendars or Resource Calendar page.
2.
Click the date for an individual schedule that you want to return to the default schedule.

In the Schedule drop-down list, select 'Default schedule'.
You can see that the schedule that is configured for the organization unit or bucket is shown in brackets.

Click Submit.
The individual schedule is removed and the inherited schedule is applied. A default schedule is displayed with a
darker color on the calendar, and an individual schedule is displayed with a lighter color.
