Description

iNotes_WA_CalViewWorkDays defines in the HCL iNotes web calendar (Web Access) how the work week is displayed. With iNotes_WA_CalViewWorkDays=0, the five-day work week from Monday through Friday is enforced; Saturday and Sunday are treated as the weekend and hidden from the work-week view. This is the default display layout in iNotes.
If the parameter is omitted or set to a different value, the user can still decide in the iNotes client whether the weekend is displayed (corresponding option in the calendar preferences).
Configuration is done server-side in the notes.ini of the iNotes/HTTP server; there is no GUI equivalent. HCL documents the parameter consistently from Domino 9.0.1 through 11.0.1, 12.0.2, and 14.x.

Example configuration

Server notes.ini of the iNotes/HTTP server — enforce 5-day work week Mon–Fri:
iNotes_WA_CalViewWorkDays=0
Runtime activation without server restart:
set config iNotes_WA_CalViewWorkDays=0
Revert to user decision (weekend can be displayed):
set config iNotes_WA_CalViewWorkDays=

Notes & pitfalls

  • Takes effect only in the iNotes web calendar, not in the Notes client and not in HCL Verse.
  • The HTTP task must reload the configuration — tell http restart or set config … activates it immediately.
  • Even with =0, weekend appointments are not deleted — they remain visible in other calendar views (day, week, month); only the work-week view hides them.
  • HCL explicitly mentions the parameter as a means to enforce a consistent 5-day display in environments with mixed user configurations.
  • Pure notes.ini configuration — no person-document override possibility. For per-user control, person/mail policies with individual iNotes preferences are required.
  • The parameter affects display; it does not change any business logic (e.g. free-time calculation on Sat/Sun).
