Calculate Hours Dialog Box

Use the Calculate Hours dialog box to specify the number of working hours on each day of the week. Cobra uses this information to calculate the number of working hours in each period.

The calculated hour definitions are stored in the calendar file and are reflected in all calendar sets. You can later modify the calculated working hours to indicate accounting periods impacted by events such as company-wide holidays or plant shutdowns.

Each value that you enter on this dialog box must be between 0 and 24.

• If you enter a negative value, Cobra changes your entry to 0.
• If you enter a value greater than 24, Cobra automatically changes your entry to 24.
• If the previous value is less than 24 and you enter a value greater than 24, the previous value is displayed, not 24.
