DAYS/DCAL WDAYS/WCAL

These parameters are all optional.

The DAYS parameter identifies days of the month on that the mission should be scheduled (for example, 1st day of the month, 3rd working day of the month). Several formats are available for specifying DAYS values.

The WDAYS parameter identifies days of the week on that the mission should be scheduled. For example, the 1st day of the week, the 2nd working day of each week, and so on. Several formats are available for specifying WDAYS values.

A calendar specifies days of the year on which a rule can be scheduled, known as working days. For more information on calendars and the IOA Calendar Facility, see IOA Calendar Facility.

When the DAYS and DCAL parameters are both specified, they work as a complementary unit, as described later in this chapter.

Similarly, when the WDAYS and WCAL parameters are both specified, they work as a complementary unit, as described later in this chapter.

When values for the DAYS (/DCAL) and WDAYS (/WCAL) parameter are both specified in the same balancing mission, the resulting schedule is determined by the value specified in field AND/OR.
