Non-Project Related Availability, Personal Calendars (v10.xx)

An accurate forecasting of your resources should also include non-project related activities such as vacation, public holidays, and so forth. A public holiday calendar can be created and associated with specific locations, consequently impacting corresponding resources. Each resource can log personal calendar entries directly in Cerri Project whenever their time cannot be booked to work on projects (vacation, training, etc.).

Create a personal calendar entry

Users can specify when they will be unavailable for work on projects. These entry types require approval, most commonly from the resource’s manager.

To create a new unavailability:

1. Navigate to the [Resources] tab.
2. Select "New unavailability" from the contextual navigation menu on the left, under the "Calendar & unavailability" section.
   

Header	Resource name	Resource the unavailability is for.
	Status	Current status according to the approval process.
	Action	Possible action according to the workflow.
	Modified	Date and time of the last modifications.
Unavailability Period	Type	Type of unavailability. The possible values come from the Availabilities management setup.
	From	First day of the unavailability.
	To	Last day of the unavailability.
	In case of a non-worked day, change it to a working day?	If "Yes" is selected, the unavailability corresponds to a worked day. This allows a normally non-worked day to be marked as a worked day (e.g. working on week-ends). In this case, ensure that the unavailability percentage is accurate. To indicate that the full day will be worked, the unavailability percentage should be 0%.
	Unavailable to	The percentage of unavailability.
