Customizing the project calendar

A project calendar is used to define the working and non-working hours and days to suit project-specific requirements. The project calendar is a copy of the base calendar that is assigned to the project and contains the working and non-working hours and days specified in the base calendar. Customizing the project calendar involves modifying the exceptions already specified in the base calendar, and adding new exceptions.
To perform this task, you must have the required security permission. For more information about security permissions, see User security settings.
To customize the project calendar:
