When creating a child schedule:

The schedule prolongation involves SLA indication setup that should be performed seamlessly between two years. Indications from which the calculation begins If the calculations of the indications begin at the end of the year, it can only expire in the following year. That is why Therefore it is risky to change the schedule in indicator records, based on which the calculation is performed.
When creating a schedule that will be used to calculate SLA, you can set the Repeate Until on values of repeating elements with a margin of several years from the expected schedule end date or leave the field empty. When the next year comes, it will be enough to add the holidays of the year to the schedule and there will be no need to change the schedule in indicator records.
Out-of-box option
The default schedule record for 2022 2023 is available on the platform. The record describes a standard full-time workweek (five eight-hour days) of 40 hours in total, excluding Russian Holidays.
