# Cut-off calendars

If you want to know why you need to set up a Cut-off calendar, follow this [link](/data-watcher-1.21/model/cut-offs.md).

Data Watcher has two pre-existing calendars: Everyday and Every Working Day. To set a different calendar, you can download the **Every Day Model**, modify it on your local drive, and upload it.

If you need to set a different Calendar, follow these steps:

1. As **Administrator**, go to **Setup** → **Cut-off Calendars**.
2. Click on the 3 dots icon on the right of the Every Day Model and select **Download** to save it on your local drive.
3. Edit the TXT file noting that:\
   \[INFO]\
   **Name**: name of the cut-off calendar that will appear on the Name column of the result list.\
   **Description**: description that will appear on the Description column of the result list.\
   \[WEEKDAYS]\
   **Accepted values**: E for enabled or D for disabled.\
   A day is Enabled when a cut-off can be configured for that day.\
   A day is Disabled when a cut-off cannot be configured for that day.\
   \[EXCEPTIONS]\
   In this section you can configure bank holidays or days when the cut-off **will not be applied**. The format supported is:\
   yyyymmdd=E | D\
   For example: 20251225=D will disable December 25th, 2025.
4. In the **Cut-off Calendars** page, click the **UPLOAD** button to import the file into Data Watcher.

If you need to edit the file, use the **Update** option of the 3 dots icon.

Find here below an example of a Calendar:
