Using a Custom Calendar in a Build Script

Custom calendars are often defined for fiscal reporting. Fiscal or other non-standard calendars can be built into a cBase, and then the calendar cBase can in turn be built into a larger cBase to accompany the custom calendar columns.

To use a custom calendar in a Build Script:

  1. Click the Properties cell for the column where you want to set a custom calendar.
    Selecting Properties for Date
    The Properties dialog box appears.
    Column Properties Dialog
  2. In the Properties dialog box set the following:
    • Select period from the Type drop-down list.
    • Select Custom from the Calendar drop-down list, and navigate to your saved cBase calendar.
  3. Click OK, and save the script.

NOTE: If the calendar cBase is refined and rebuilt, you also need to rebuild any cBases that are built with that calendar.
