Planning your project around the holidays with Taskfeed and Salesforce Business Hours
This story is inspired by a tweet by Geraldine Gray that made me lolz.

This made me chuckle. It tickled me particularly as I had just watched Elf the day prior (for the first time this Christmas, but likely not the last) but also because I was planning the content for the Taskfeed 7 release webinars.
In Taskfeed you can now schedule work around week days and holidays. So the requirements for such memes can be avoided⎯if you use Taskfeed that is. When a task is scheduled the duration will be calculated in ‘Business Days’. Business Days are configured within Salesforce in your Salesforce Organization Business Hours. You can then define Holidays to work alongside the business hours.
This is a great example of how Taskfeed leverages the Salesforce platform to make it a better project management app. Business Hours are provided by Salesforce to support their Service Cloud escalation rules and entitlements. Taskfeed uses this same capability to help you plan projects.
While this is not enterprise resource management it is one sure fire way to ensure you get your Holidays off as planned.
To find out more about what’s new in Taskfeed register for one of the release webinars. Alternatively book a one-to-one demo to find out more about Taskfeed project management for Salesforce.
