How to: Update Calendar Entries for Machine Centers

When you create a new machine center, its calendar entries do not yet exist. Calendar changes, such as absence, are not immediately visible either. When you have entered the machine center’s nonworking days, you must recalculate the calendar.

To update calendar entries for a machine center

  1. In the Search box, enter Machine Centers, and then choose the related link.

  2. Open the relevant Machine Center card from the list.

  3. On the Navigate tab, in the Planning group, choose Calendar.

  4. In the Machine Center Calendar window, on the Actions tab, in the General group, choose Show Matrix.

  5. In the Machine Center Calendar Matrix window, on the Actions tab, in the Functions window, choose Calculate.

  6. On the Machine Center FastTab, select the machine centers to be recalculated by setting a filter.

  7. Fill in the Starting Date and Ending Date fields for which the calendar entries are to be calculated.

  8. Choose the OK button to calculate the calendar entries for the selected period.

Important

The calculation of calendar entries overwrites any manual changes made to the calendar entries.
