Calendar Export to Open Plan

Use the Export Calendar to Open Plan Wizard to export a calendar to Open Plan for use as a reporting calendar when generating time-phased resource records.

Having matching calendars ensures that resource spreads match exactly in Open Plan and Cobra after you import a schedule.

Cobra appends the end of day time to the time-phased resource assignments following these rules:
  • If exporting calendar dates to an Open Plan fiscal calendar, Cobra will read the default stop time specified in Open Plan and add it as time during calendar export. For example, if the default stop time is 16:00, Cobra will export 29-Mar-2025 4:00pm as the date in Open Plan.
  • If the default stop time in is 24:00, Cobra will load the fiscal calendar date +1 day. For example, if the day is 29-Mar-2025, Cobra will load it as 30-Mar-2025 12:00am.
  • If the default time is not found in the Open Plan, Cobra will default to 11:59pm.
