Managing Day Labels

Before you create day labels, ensure that you have first created the shift labels.

Creating Day Labels

In day labels, you can set the work time for each shift. For example, you can divide the 24 hours available in a day into working shifts of eight hours each. Therefore, each day would have three shifts. Before creating day labels, first create the shift labels.

To create a day label:

  1. From the Partition and Departments dropdown menu, select a department.

  2. From the Navigation menu, browse to Business Rules > Business Calendars > Days.

  3. On the List page toolbar, click the New New Button button.

    A maximum of 75 day labels can be created in a department.

  4. On the Properties page, provide the following details:

    1. Name: Type a name for the shift label.

      Do not use a comma (,) in the name of the shift label.

    2. Description: Type a brief description.

    3. Time Zone: It shows the time zone selected for the department. This field is disabled. If you want to change the time zone for your department, you can do it by changing the Business calendar timezone setting.

  2. On the List page, hover your mouse over the day label and click the Delete button.
