Form Toolbar
The form toolbar includes only standard buttons. For the list of standard buttons, see Form Toolbar and More Menu.
Summary Area
You use the elements in this area to specify an identifier and description for a new calendar, or to select an existing calendar. Once you select a calendar, you can view the calendar settings on the tabs and make any needed edits. Also, you can see the total duration of a workday and override the number of work hours per day, if needed.
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Calendar ID |
The unique identifier of the calendar. MYOB Acumatica provides the following predefined work calendars:
|
| Description | A description of the calendar. |
| Time Zone | The time zone associated with the calendar. Select the proper time zone from the list of all time zones available. |
| Workday Hours |
The duration of the work time (in hours and minutes) during the workday. The system calculates the time duration as the sum of the durations in the Hours Worked column for each selected day divided by the number of selected days on the Calendar tab. If the duration in the Hours Worked column changes, the system recalculates the duration in the box. You can edit the duration in the box only if the Override check box is selected. |
| Override | A check box that indicates (if selected) that you can override the duration of the work time during the workday for the current calendar. By default, the check box is cleared. |
Calendar Tab
On this tab, you define the working hours of the company, its branch or employees, or business partners, depending on the particular calendar. The elements are grouped into seven rows; each row represents a day of the week. For each day, the duration of the work time and the duration of breaks during the working day are also displayed.
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Hours Per Year | Enter the number of hours employees are expected to work in a standard year. Editing this value alters the default values of the Start Time and End Time fields. Available only if MYOB Acumatica — Payroll is in use. |
| Hours Per Week | The number of hours employees are expected to work in a standard week. This value is calculated from the Hours Per Year value. Available only if MYOB Acumatica — Payroll is in use. |
| Day of Week | The day of the week. Select the check box for the day if it is a workday. |
| Start Time | The time when the working hours start on this day of the week. |
| End Time | The time when the working hours end on this day of the week. |
| Hours Worked |
Read-only. The duration of work time in hours and minutes for a particular day. The value is calculated by using the formula. If a value in the Start Time, End Time, or
Break Duration column (or all of
them) is changed, the system recalculates the duration in the
column.
Note: If you specify an end time of the workday that
is earlier than the start time, the system considers the end
of the workday to be on the following day. Suppose that the
start time is set for 9:00 PM and the end time for
9:00 AM. Then the system calculates 12
hours in the Hours Worked column for
that workday. |
| Break Duration | Read-only. The duration of a break (or multiple breaks) in hours and minutes within the working hours for a particular day. The system populates the column by using the data on the Break Times tab of the current form. If you change the break times on the Break Times tab, the system updates the durations in the column accordingly. |
| Goods Are Moved | A check box that you select if goods can be moved on this day of the week. |
Break Times Tab
On this tab, you specify the duration of breaks during any working day. You can specify the start and end times of the break for each day of the week or for all days at once. You can enter multiple records with the break duration for any day of the week. The break durations for each day are summed, and the total break duration is used in the calculation of worked hours per day on the Calendar tab.
The table toolbar includes only standard buttons. For the list of standard buttons, see Table Toolbar.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Day of Week | The day of the week for which you are specifying the break duration. If you select the All option, the system applies the break duration to every day of the week. |
| Start Time | Required. The time when the break starts. |
| End Time | Required. The time when the break ends. |
| Break Duration | The duration of a break for the particular day (or for all days if All is the
specified day of the week). The duration is expressed in hours and
minutes and calculated by using the following formula.
|
| Description | Optional description of the break time. |
