Project calendar
Calendar keeps the record of start and end date (actual) of the project and activities,
along with time and working hours of the week.
Project Calendar : While Project automatically provides you with default calendar settings
(Monday through Friday, 8AM to 5PM), those defaults might not be the right fit for your
projects. Therefore, it is vital for Project Calendar to enter things like holidays, typical
working hours of the project, or other organization-wide calendar items. When you enter
a holiday or a change to working times in a base calendar, those changes are
automatically reflected in all other calendars that use that base calendar to create Project
calendar..
Exception handling can also be easily through this so that the delays can be managed
properly.
It allows one to keep a list of holidays so that one can manage accordingly.
