Calendar

The data model calendar is used to set which days and hours are to be taken into consideration in throughput time calculations. For accurate throughput times, this could be your company's working hours and days.

Celonis provides two calendars: Throughput time calendar and Factory calendar.

Click on the toggle of any calendar to get more information and a detailed description.

After the configuration of any calendar, the WORKDAYS_BETWEEN function will be available in the Process Explorer and the Variant Explorer, as well as in the Process Explorer KPIs.
