Flag Periods

Once you have the base calendar set defined, you can define subsets of the base calendar by flagging selected dates.

To flag a period:

  1. Display the Calendar view of the calendar file you want to update.
  2. In the Calendar view, select the Calendar Sets tab and take one of the following actions:
    • In the Calendars group on the Edit tab, click Flag Periods.
    • Right-click the Calendar Set pane and select Flag Periods on the shortcut menu.
  3. On the Flag Periods dialog box, specify if you want to flag all periods or selected periods only, and if you want to use a fixed or a floating flag and click OK.
    After flagging dates, costs can be aggregated or summarized for each of the flagged dates. Thus, your base calendar might be monthly. You can create a calendar set for quarterly or yearly reporting or storing of time-phased data. In addition, it is common to report the next 12 periods.
