Creating a Calendar

Use the Calendar window to create a calendar for use by supplier and customer windows.

You have to set up only one period for the calendar. You do not have to enter multiple periods or calendars.

Note: This form is shared with other Oracle Applications. OLM does not use some of the fields in this window.

  1. Enter a name for the calendar; for example, OLM Calendar.

  4. Enter the period type, typically Year.

  8. Enter the start and end dates the period covers; for example, 01-JAN-2000 to 31-DEC-2000.
