Configuring Calendar Inputs

The Calendar Inputs dialog box shows the built-in and custom calendar input types defined for the system. Calendar inputs are a special type of input specification because the input is inherent in the timestamp of the input data entry, and thus the input type will be additionally processed for each input entry that is examined.

For each calendar input type the table lists defined calendar entries, with the following columns: Enabled, Name, Date, Type, and Override Date. Built-in Calendar Input Types include All Calendar Inputs and Default (US) Holidays.

Use the Calendar Input Type control to filter the Calendar Input Types displayed. You can sort by any column.
