Define Working Days, Non-working Days, and Holidays on a Project Sheet

The sheet owner and collaborators with Admin access to adependency-enabledproject sheet canconfigure non-working days and holidays for the project, as well as the length of working days (in hours).

Here are a few things to keep in mind about non-working days and holidays in Smartsheet:

• When the Gantt chart timeline is displayed in days, you'll see non-working days highlighted in grey in the Gantt chart and holidays highlighted in pink.
• Tasks and milestones can be scheduled manually to start on a non-working or holiday, but end dates can't occur on these types of days.
• 非工作时间和节假日不包括在duration calculations.

A System Admin of a Business or Enterprise plan can alsoconfigure working, non-working and holidays at the account-level. The settings will be applied to any new sheet with dependencies enabled created by licensed users on the account. (Not sure which plan type you have? SeeIdentify Your Smartsheet Plan and User Type.)

TIP: Open theUser Managementscreen to find a list of licensed users on the account.
