Global Nonworking Time Overview (admin) |
Global nonworking times are exceptions an administrator creates for the PPM workweek calendar(s). You can assign nonworking time to the default workweek calendar as well as to custom workweek calendars. Nonworking time only applies to those calendars to which it is assigned. For details, see Creating Global Nonworking Time.
Global nonworking times are assigned to calendars and affect the availability of those users assigned to those calendars.
Note: There is also Personal Nonworking time, which are similar exceptions for individual users. Personal nonworking time is created in the Team Manager application by a Resource Manager or Supervisor and assigned to specific users. See Personal Nonworking Time Overview in the Main section of this help for more information.
When you create nonworking time for a calendar, this reduces capacity of all resources assigned to the calendar. The resource availability is automatically adjusted to reflect the nonworking time.
For example, if you add 8 hours of nonworking time for a company holiday to a workweek calendar, availability for resources assigned to the calendar is automatically decremented by 8 hours for that day.
When you create nonworking time it impacts existing tasks scheduled during the nonworking time period. If a project task schedule is impacted by nonworking time, a message displays when the project manager navigates to the workspace, advising the project manager that the schedule has been impacted and offering an opportunity to adjust the schedule . The project manager is not required to readjust the schedule but if an impacted task(s) is edited and its Planned Start, Planned Finish, or Duration is changed, the task is automatically rescheduled based on the current calendar, including the nonworking time.
