Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

hi
thank all my friends (for your responsibility)
i prefer to use View-->Reports-->Custom-->base calender (as Alexandre and Jaco and Erik and ... say )and
show for printing ,this is fastest way to inform managers and others about start and finish date of each day.
all the best

Go to the caleder View and then format Time scale then click date shading and there you can choose your resource calender (as per your need).And you can define bars also if you need.

Hi K M
I think you can create daily calender view and as you said you have defined your resource calenders so after creating the calender view then format time scale and then click "date shading" then choose one of the resource calender and define other exceptions as per your need. Format the bar style as you like. The bar will show the tentative (proportionally) working time of eack worker. Only thing you need to use filter for the selected resource.

Moradi,

Andrew and Jaco are correct, because it gives you the start and finish times for each weekday, then it gives you the exceptions.

If this is not what you want and you want it in a calender format. If you are really serious - either do it in MS-Excel or in a create milestone activities for named start and finish each day, constrain the dates, and print it in normal view. You could even use MS-Outlook or another program that can print.

I don’t know of any planning package that can do this.

Why do you want the start and finish times in there, do you have a timekeeping problem?

Regards,

Erik

Have a look at page two. (First is the standard and then it is the defined calender) (Well on my Computer this is how it works)

Also if you print the calender it will give you the dates (and grey scale)

hi,

Andrew’s way is the only way you can print it, but you can’t edit it there. You go to Tools-->Change working time... and select the calender you want to edit.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Erik

I’ve used to create Custom Report (View-->Reports-->Custom-->New-->Monthly Calendar-->Calendar: Your calenadar).
Hope It’ll work.
