- The Do you want to copy in the template for the cc data field? message is displayed.
  - Yes:
    - Three types of templates are offered for selection.
    - Select the required template.
    - The selected template is automatically copied to the Data field configuration field.
    - Parameters can be adapted in the Data field configuration field afterwards, if necessary.
  - No:
    - Open the tree structure of the data field and define the following parameters in the Data field configuration field.

Parameters	Description	Permitted values	Not permitted values
def_start_date	Default start date	Absolute values (e.g. "08/14/2009") System variables with/without operations (e.g. "@123" oder "@123+10")	Dynamic variables Python IDs
start_date	Start date	Absolute values (e.g. "08/14/2009") System variables with/without operations Dynamic variables with/without operations (e.g. @D123+15) Python ID of the start date data field
def_end_date	Default end date	Absolute values (e.g. "08/14/2009") System variables with/without operations (e.g. "@123" oder "@123+10")	Dynamic variables Python IDs
end_date	End date	Absolute values (e.g. "08/14/2009") System variables with/without operations Dynamic variables with/without operations (e.g. "@D123+15") Python ID of the end date data field
def_calendar	Default calendar ID	Values from DI000305 Calendar from DT418 Calendar (e.g. "BK") System variables (e.g. "@123")	Dynamic variables Python IDs
calendar	Calender ID	Values (values from DI000305 Calendar from DT418 Calendar ) System variables Dynamic variables (e.g. @D123) Python ID of the data field which defines the calendar
def_selection_mode	Default selection mode	Values ("working", "non_working", "all") System variables	Dynamic variables or Python IDs
selection_mode	Selection mode	Python ID of the data field which defines the selection mode Dynamic variables (e.g. @D123) System variables Values ("working", "non_working", "all")
xaml	XML document with a root element containing XAML settings for calendar control.

Details

Each parameter is entered in a new line.
Structure schema: param_name=value
For default parameters, the entered value applies to the entire column.
For non-default parameters, the entered value only applies for the corresponding record.
- If both non-default and default parameters are entered, the non-default parameters overwrite the default parameters.
All customizing settings are saved in a string: "attr1=value1;attr2=value2;..."
If you use variables for the values and add or subtract certain day figures, you have to make sure that before and after operations no white spaces are entered.
- E.g. the entry "@D123 + 10" is interpreted as "@D123" since the entry is followed by a whitespace in the first case.
DI/DF Python IDs cannot be combined with other values.
- E.g. "end_date=requested_end+10" is not supported while "end_date=requested_end" is supported.

Example

def_start_date = 01.01.1970
def_end_date = 31.12.2099
calendar= @G150

Set input only via listbox

Information

As in the case of regular listboxes, when embedding date listboxes in a module, the customizer can use the Input only via listbox parameter to define for date listboxes that only data from the listbox can be taken.
