Definition

Specifies how you want to enter the limits of the planning period.

You can enter the planning period in two different ways:

  • Entry with specific date
  • Entry relative to current date

Example

Example of an entry with a concrete date:

Entry type    Start    Finish

CalMonth    3.1994    6.1994   

CalDay    2.3.1994    31.11.94   

Examples of an entry relatice to a current day, for example, to 14.1.1994:

Entry type    Start    Finish   

CalDays    -10    +20

This generates a planning period from 04.01.1994 to 03.02.1994.

Entry type    Start    Finish   

CalWeeks    -1    +2

This generates a planning period from 03.01.1994 to 30.01.1994.
