Enable An Alternate Calendar

Enables the settings of an optional calendar to be added to the calendar that you set for your site.

Define Your Work Week

Specifies which days of the week make up your work week: the first day of each work week and the first week of the year. You can also specify the start and end time of work days.

Time Format

Specifies whether to display the time in 12-hour or 24-hour format.

Note: Depending on what locale you selected, you may be able to select only the 24-hour format.
