The sheet owner and collaborators with Admin access to a dependency-enabled project sheet can configure non-working days and holidays for the project, as well as the length of working days (in hours).
Here are a few things to keep in mind about non-working days and holidays in Smartsheet:
A System Admin of a multi-user plan can also configure working, non-working and holidays at the account-level. The settings will be applied to any new sheet with dependencies enabled created by licensed users on the account. (Not sure which plan type you have? See Identify Your Smartsheet Plan and User Type.)
TIP: Open the User Management screen to find a list of licensed users on the account.
You can use the Project Settings form for a sheet to set the length of working days (in hours), designate days of the week as non-working, and specify dates of holidays. Non-working days and holidays are not included in duration calculations and can be set differently for each project sheet.
NOTE: Dependencies must be enabled on the sheet in order to configure these settings. For information about how to enable dependencies, see the article Enabling Dependencies and Using Predecessors.
A System Admin on a multi-user plan can configure working day settings at the account-level. The settings will be applied to new sheets with dependencies enabled created by licensed users on the account. New sheets created from templates will always inherit the working days of the template regardless of the settings for account-level working days. See Templates: Create Your Own or Use One from the Solution Center for information about creating your own templates.
