The length of the work week can be defined in the Worktime section in Worktime > Administration > Working community settings / Setting group settings > Work hours > TES.
If the length of the working week is not specified at all in the setting ‘TES work week length’, the default value is 0.
The length of the work week is defined in settings TES work week length / TES work week length is based on the duration of planned shifts and TES maximum hours of work per week / TES maximum hours of work per week are based on the duration of planned shifts.
The length of the work week is defined as either a fixed amount or it is based on the duration of planned work shifts. Only one of these settings should be used at a time. If both settings have a valid value, the setting "TES maximum hours of work per week are based on the duration of planned shifts" overrides the fixed value set in the setting "TES maximum hours of work per week".
TES maximum hours of work per week are defined in the settings under the workweek. The fixed TES maximum hours of work per week is often greater than the length of the workweek, in which case the difference between the two is formed as additional work, unless otherwise specified in the settings. TES maximum hours of work per week can also be formed by planned work shifts, in which case this setting overrides any fixed value that may have been set.
It is recommended to use the validity tool when defining the length of work week.
Please also check if you need to make any changes to the length of work day settings.
Setting an exception to work week length in calendar view
An exception to the length of the work week can be set directly in the person's calendar for one week at a time. An exception made in calendar always overrules a setting coming from setting group, regardless if the setting says the work week length is fixed or is formed by planned shifts.
In the person's calendar, press the date for the week which length you want to change. The date button opens a separate pop-up window, where one of the options is the length of the work week. By pressing that, you can set an exception to the length of the work week.
Set the exceptional length and press 'Save':
