Calendar type	Description
REGULAR/PERIODIC	Regular calendars consist of scheduling dates or days of the week that can be defined according to monthly patterns. Periodic calendars are especially useful when scheduling dates do not easily conform to fixed date or day of the week or month patterns. For more information on regular/periodic calendars and defining its parameters, proceed to Defining a regular/periodic calendar.
RULE-BASED (RBC)	Rule-based calendars schedule jobs according to rules and can be referred to from any job definition. The criteria can be applied to any given year. For more information on rule-based calendars and defining its parameters, proceed to Defining rule-based calendars.
