Hello, my name is Kowana, and in these lessons, you will learn advanced calendar and task features. In this lesson, we will review how to change workdays and add holidays in Outlook 365-2023 version. You can choose the days of the week that are a part of your work week, the time when your workday starts and ends, and the day of the week that you want to be the start of your week. To access these options, you will go to your options area and choose calendar. By default, the work week is defined as Monday through Friday, with the workday starting at 9 and in at 5, with the first day of the week being Sunday. So you have the option to change any of those settings to fit your work week based on how it's customized or designed, particularly for you. So the first day of the week, you can change by selecting from the drop-down list of the days of the week that are provided. So the first day of the week for me starts on Monday for my work schedule, I can choose Monday. And in my calendar, that will be the first day that appears. For your work week, you can select the days of the week that you actually work. So if you work Monday through Friday or Tuesday through Saturday, whatever your schedule looks like, you can select that as your work week. When you choose that display option, those will be the days that will appear. So we're going to change it to only be Monday through Friday, because those are the days that I actually work in my schedule. So I'm going to deselect Saturday and Sunday. And then you can change your meeting hours. So if your day starts earlier or later, you can change the start time and end time. So my work schedule is eight to four. So we can change that by selecting the new start time and end time. So once you've made the changes to customize it to meet your personal schedule, you'll click Save to store it. And now when you go to your calendar area, we'll be able to see some of those changes reflected. So here, the first year of the week showing in my calendar is Monday because we changed that. And then we click on the Work Week Display option. We'll see that Monday through Friday are the days that we identified as our work week calendar days. Another feature that's available for us to use in managing our calendar area is the ability to add holidays. You can add holidays that match up with your current location to help in planning events and activities. To access this feature, you'll click on the Add Calendar button. Choose the option for holidays. Select the holidays that you want to appear on your calendar. By default, the United States is set, but we can add any other locations depending on where we might to business or reside to show those calendar days. So we have an office in Canada, so we're going to add Canada by checking the box, and then we have an office in Brazil. So we're going to check the calendar option for Brazil as well. We should be able to see that United States is already checked by scrolling to the bottom. So we'll close the box, and now when we look at our calendar, we should be able to see holidays that connect with those locations. So these are holidays listed here. Highlight it. This is a Canada holiday. This is a United States holiday. As you scroll through, you should be able to see any holidays that are connected with that area. You also have the ability to turn those features on and off directly here in calendar area. So for the calendar holidays, we click on the More Options button. We can choose to change the color, avoid it displays or looks like on our calendar. We can move it up or down or move it to another group within our calendar area. Or we can remove it if we no longer want to see those holidays added to our calendar. So for Brazil, we're going to remove that one by clicking the Remove option here and click Remove. And now only the only holidays that should be showing are for the United States and for Canada. Hopefully this can help in organizing the information in your calendar area and customizing it to meet your personal preferences. Stay tuned for the next lesson where I'll show you how to edit and manage time zones. Thanks for watching.
