Specify Working and Non-Working Days

To specify your firm's normal working days, non-working days, and holidays, go to the Calendar tab in the General area of the Configuration workspace.

To specify working and non-working days, complete the following steps:
  1. In the Configuration workspace, click on the left edge of the Deltek Resource Planning page to go to the General area.
  2. Click the Calendar tab.
  3. In START OF WEEK, click and select the first day in your work week.
  4. Under Non-Working Days, select the days of the week that your employees normally do not work.
  5. To add a holiday, click + Add Holiday below the Holidays grid to add a blank row.
  6. In DATE, click and select the date of the holiday.
  7. In TYPE, click and select Holiday, Leave, or Other to indicate the type of time off.
  8. In DESCRIPTION, enter the name or other description of the holiday.
  9. If the holiday includes more than one day, click at the end of the row to copy the holiday information into a new row, and change the date in that row.

    You can also use the copy feature if you want to create rows for a holiday for several years at one time. You can then change the dates and sort the grid based on date if you want the holidays in chronological order.

  10. Repeat steps 5 - 9 to add other holidays.
