Implementation Overview – Statutory Holidays & PM Action Adjustment

We have successfully integrated statutory holiday dates into the weekday calendar. Consequently, the PM action now accurately recognizes the following holidays:

  • Friday, August 1, 2025

  • Monday, August 4, 2025

  • Tuesday, August 5, 2025

As a result, the system automatically adjusted the task due dates to account for these holidays. Although the original due date was set for August 5, 2025, the system deferred it to Tuesday, August 12, 2025, in alignment with the configured business rules.

However, we have observed an unexpected behavior: the system is skipping July 30 (Wednesday) and July 31 (Thursday), which causes the next available due date to fall on Friday, August 8, 2025, rather than the expected Tuesday, August 12. This suggests that the date-skipping logic is being applied beyond the defined holiday dates.

Request:
Could you please confirm whether we can refine the configuration to:

  • Exclude only the statutory holidays (August 1, 4, and 5),

  • Include all standard weekdays (July 30 and 31), and

  • Ensure the due date calculation correctly lands on August 12, 2025, following the configured rule set?

Your guidance on adjusting the rules or calendar settings to ensure correct due-date behavior would be greatly appreciated.

 

Hi ​@Chaithanya Kumar Bodula 

 

Can you try using “Calendar” field in the PM Action - General tab ?

Please check whether you have access to below KBA which explains this functionality.  https://support.ifs.com/csm?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0082615

 

What you can do is, define a normal working calendar with weekdays and weekends and then define the holidays in the exceptions list.

 

 

 

Then define the PM Action and enter the calendar ID in the PM Information section in the PM Action - General tab.

This calendar is optional and can be used to avoid the PM lines that are created during certain calendar periods, e.g. according to seasonal patterns. This is for example useful to make sure no PM lines are created during a vacation period if production stand still during that period. This calendar can be used in conjunction with the maintenance organization calendar which makes sure the PM lines are created on working days. But while the calendar of the maintenance organization will move lines outside working time forward to next coming working day, this calendar will make sure such lines are omitted from the maintenance plan. 

 

Example:

Let’s say - Maintenance triggers - Calendar plan for every month, starts on 1/1/2025. February 1st and March 1st are holidays.

  • With a calendar in PM Action General tab - Holidays 1st Feb and 1st March are skipped.

 

  • Without a calendar in PM Action General tab - Maintenance work due on holidays are shifted to the next working day.

 

Please check whether this information helps.

Best Regards,

Thilini

Hi ​@Thilini Kumarasinghe , thanks for the reply. We’ve implemented a calendar system that accounts for weekends across the board. However, when it comes to the specified STAT holiday condition (1st, 4th, and 5th STAT holidays), the system is only including weekdays and ignoring weekends. As a result, it’s skipping the weekends on August 2nd, 3rd, 9th, and 10th. Why is the logic excluding only those specific weekends?
