Business Hours

The [Settings > Configuration > Mapping > Business Hours] can be used to create a Business hour profile.

The Business Hours is a system function that allows the user to define and set specific time ranges to represent "working" hours. Primarily utilized for informational purposes, once established and color-selected, these hours will be visually represented on graphs. This feature works similarly to the Maintenance Windows feature, but it cannot block alerts and usually repeats the set dates.
