changing working time for an enterprise calendar

F

Farooq Khan

hi,
I'm using Project 2007 pro and server. The default working time against the
standard calendar are 8-12 and 1-5. I want to change it to 9-1 and 2-6
instead.

But when i try to do that using the enterprise global project, going through
'Define general working time' then 'Define additional calendar' then 'Edit
and existing calendar' and changing the work week's working hours it gives
me following message.
"The working hours for Monday are not valid. Please enter valid working
hours. The end time for a shift should be after the starting time for that
shift. Each shift should start after the previous shift ends."

I have tried editing Standard as well as my own custom made calendars. I
still get that message. But when i move the working time for monday back to
8-12 and 1-5, and leaving the rest to 9-1 and 2-6, the message changes
telling me now its Tuesday who has the same issue. It seems like there are
any settings somewhere that arent allowing me to proceed.

Let me know what i'm doing wrong here. Thanks.

Best regards,
Farooq Khan

Rod,
Yes i have doubled check (after having a cup of coffee), i'm specifying 2 pm
and 6 pm for the 2nd shift. Rest of the shifts are null. So no chance of it
conflicting with others.

Still struggling to fix it...any other suggestions..??

By 'rest of the shifts are null', I mean no shift defined other than 9-1 and
2-6.

Hi Farooq,

PS2007 seems to handle enterprise calendars differently. Instead of
opening the enterprise global.mpt as we did in PS2003, try the
"Enterprise Calendars" option under "Enterprise Data" on the Server
Settings page.
