The remaining rows display calendar exceptions, including columns for Day of Week, Exception Date, Is Exception (checked), and work Hours available. If exception changes to a workday, Is Workday column is checked, and Shifts also display. If exception changes to a non-workday, Is PTO column is checked. Resource Calendar object is filterable by Calendar Entry Type (All, Calendar Exception, Day of Week), Day of Week, Exception Date Range, Is Workday, Is Exception, Is PTO, and power filter. -
