Base calendar

The base calendar, which is installed by Teamcenter, is used as the master calendar when creating schedules. It shows which days are workdays, hours in a workday, holidays and days off. The base calendar is set up and maintained by your system administrator.

For example, if your organization has a four-day work week, you would set Daily Defaults for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to be 10 hours; for Friday, you would set Daily Defaults to 0.

A site can have several base calendars.

Teamcenter provides the following three default base calendars:

  • Standard
  • Night Shift
  • 24 Hour

When you select the base calendar, you can also select the time zone.
