    Need ability to assign tasks to resources that are outside their custom work calendar

    I have my staff set at 50% work calendars as this is the amount of time they have available to work on new projects.  I've done so by scheduling them for 4 hrs/day M-F, as this is a typical work week.  However, several times a year I have a need for my staff to work over a weekend, but the way I have Daptiv configured, it moves any weekend tasks to the first available workday (Monday).

     Does anyone know how I can overcome this issue?  Is there an "over-ride" feature or some other method?

     Thank you,

    Hampton

     If your teams work Sat/Sun then their workweek isn't really M-F and the workweek calendar should be set accordingly if planning is your priority.  In this case you can either enter workweek exceptions or global non-working time to handle unworked weekends.

     Some customers chose to end the weekend task on Monday and keep the M-F calendar.  Assignees can enter time against a task for any day regardless of the workweek calendar setting - so they can log time for Sat/Sun.

     A good feature enhancement would be something like the opposite of a workweek exception - a workweek inclusion or global working time but I don't know that enough customers would need it.  Lets hear from you via the Greenhouse or Product Feedback!
