This process regenerates availability of resources to reflect changes in the calendar.
Existing requirements and scheduled assignments on resource calendars are not impacted by changes. For example, if you add a holiday to the organization calendar and run the PRC: Generate Calendar Schedules for a Range of Calendars process, you will not see this new holiday reflected on any existing requirements or assignment schedules. However, the availability of a person is reduced by the number of hours in the holiday period, because availability is regenerated every time the process is run.
You can run the process for a single calendar or for a range of calendars. You should run this process each time one or more of the following events occur:
A new calendar is created
The work pattern for an existing calendar has changed, such as different working days or hours
New exceptions have been applied to an existing calendar, such as the addition or deletion of a public holiday
You must run this process if you want calendar changes to appear on the schedules and timelines of the resources, new requirements, and new assignments.
From the Submit Request window, Select either PRC: Generate Calendar Schedule for a Single Calendar or PRC: Generate Calendar Schedules for a Range of Calendars. See: Submitting Requests.
Calendar Name. Enter the name of the calendar for which you want to generate schedules. If you are running the process for a range of calendars, enter the starting and ending calendar names, or leave blank to process all calendars.
