The public holiday and factory calendar is a central module in the SAP System. It is used in many areas (e.g. in Logistics and in Human Resources) in the standard version.

You can use calendar maintenance to maintain and display the components of the calendar system. The public holiday and factory calendar data calculated from calendar maintenance is directly available to the system.

You can only change the holiday and factory calendar in the clients setup for them. The client must have the "Customizing" role and the "Repository and cross-client Customizing changes allowed" attribute. You must have maintenance authorization for the calendar.

A factory calendar is allocated to your plant via another Customizing function.

The calendar system consists of the following components:

  • Public holidays
    Definitions for public holidays: Calculation rule for date, religious denomination etc.
  • Public holiday calendar
    Any composition of public holiday rules.
  • Factory calendar
    Definition of workdays including special regulations, under the assignment of a particular public holiday calendar.

Standard settings

The system delivers definitions of all common public holidays and public holiday rules, as well as a standard factory calendar.

A main memory area of 400000 Bytes is reserved for calendar data in the standard version. This is the mimimum buffer size, which you should not go under.

Activities

Check whether all the definitions for public holidays and public holiday rules that you need are available in the sytem. If necessary, maintain the public holiday definitions and copy them to new or existing public holiday rules.

Create factory calendars if necessary.

Public holidays

Check that existing public holidays are complete, and create new definitions if required:

  1. Double-click with the mouse on the Execute symbol, select the option Public holidays and choose the function Display.
  2. Check whether the list of public holidays displayed contains all the public holidays that you need.
    If you want to see detailed information on any public holiday, choose the function Display def.
  3. If you need other public holidays, return to the initial screen of the maintenance transaction, and choose the function Change.
  4. Choose the function Insert, and now make the following entries:
    • Public holiday type
    • Date or calculation rule
    • Public holiday text (short and long)
    • If required: Sort criterion, religious denomination or public holiday class (for notes on this, press the F1 Help).

      Save the definition.

    • Period of validity (From year, To year)
    • Public holiday calendar ID
    • Start no. factory date
      Number from which the factory date is incremented for each workday.
      If you do not make an entry, the default value is "0".
  4. Decide which days of the week are meant to be workdays.
  5. Define special rules if necessary (e.g. plant holidays).

Further notes

  • Calendar buffer
    If you want to increase the size of the calendar buffer, maintain the parameter zcsa/calendar_area with the maintenance transaction for system profiles. Restart the system for the value to take effect.

  • Transport
    Changes to calendar data are not automatically included in a correction request.
    For the calendar data to be utilizable in another system, use the function Transport in the initial screen of the maintenance transaction.
    Note that you cannot transport individual public holidays or calendars. You can only transport calendar data in its entirety. When you do this, all public holidays, public holiday and factory calendars existing in the target system are deleted.
