The Work Package Schedule window uses the SmartPlant Foundation system calendar to configure working days and non-working days.
Administrators can specify the calendar to use in the SmartPlant Foundation Options. For more information, see SmartPlant Foundation Options.
Administrators can configure working days and non-working days on the calendar in the SmartPlant Foundation Desktop Client. For more information, see Configure and maintain calendars.
If you are using Primavera P6 with your Smart Construction project, configure your
Primavera P6 calendar to match your SmartPlant Foundation system calendar.
When non-working days are specified, Smart Construction visually represents them in the Work Package Schedule window. When you specify non-working days, you can choose to ignore them in calculating duration and crew size. If you ignore the non-working day in your calculation, the non-working day would be considered a work day. If you include the non-working in your calculation, work does not occur on a non-working day. For example, if you set non-working days for Saturday and Sunday and duration is calculated for five days with work starting on Thursday and non-working days are included, Smart Construction calculates the IWP to end on Wednesday.
If you set non-working days for Saturday and Sunday and duration is calculated for five days with work starting on Thursday and non-working days are ignored, Smart Construction calculates the IWP to end on Monday.
