Create a general calendar

Overview

General calendars serve as the basis for when alarms are escalated.

We recommend, General calendars to set it up as generously as possible. Often a General Calendar is created for a whole year.

By leaving days out, you can use the General Calendar to define when alarms should NOT be escalated, e.g. on public holidays. Bear in mind that you can have multiple General Calendars and select multiple General Calendars for each escalation.
