A calendar specified in CONFCAL is not used for rule scheduling, but is used instead for validating a schedule date. Only rules that have satisfied all other specified basic scheduling criteria are checked against the CONFCAL calendar. If the day is a working day in the CONFCAL calendar, the rule is scheduled on that day. Otherwise, the rule is either shifted to (scheduled on) another day according to the value specified in the SHIFT parameter, or the rule is not scheduled (if no SHIFT value has been specified).
CONFCAL calendars are especially useful for handling holidays and other scheduling exceptions.
