Creating a Business Calendar in WebSphere Integration Developer 6.1.2

Recently I had bogged about the Business Calendar’s in WID 6.1.2. Today I will be explaining how to create a Business Calendar in WID 6.1.2. Business Calendars are a new feature introduced in WID 6.1.2.

Following are the steps required in creating a Business Calendar.

1. Right click on the module and click on New -> Business Calendar.

2. Enter a name and other details for the business calendar.

3. Our calander window will be opened up.

4. I am going to design a business calendar that works on every week Monday to Friday 9-6 with Dec 25 as the holiday. To design this calendar, click on any examples present. We can define our business calendar using examples or manually. There is no difference between these two approaches except in example based design some data is pre populated. Here I am going with the example based design. So click on the first example itself. For me the first example is ‘January 1 2010′. After modifying the example my calendar looks like the following image which defines my office hours. Every week Monday to Friday 9 AM to 6 PM.

To add a holiday or an exception to this office hours click on Add Exception.

The above exception adds an exception so that Dec 25 will be a non working day.
