About the Weekend Rule

The Weekend Rule defines how activities that occur on weekends should be handled.

The Weekend Rule list is available for any rule that activates a subscription at daily intervals (for example, Daily and Monthly By Date).

Table 1. Weekend Rule Options
Option Description
Don't Move The subscription trip is activated on Saturday or Sunday according to the rule.
Don't Activate The subscription trip is not activated on Saturdays or Sundays but is activated every other week day.
Move to Friday The subscription trip is activated on the preceding Friday instead of Saturday or Sunday.
Move to Monday The subscription trip is activated on the following Monday instead of Saturday or Sunday.
Move to Nearest Weekday The subscription trip is activated on the nearest weekday (for example, if it falls on Saturday, the trip is activated on Friday; if on Sunday, the trip is activated on Monday).
If you choose to activate the subscription on a Friday or Monday, the original sequence is maintained. For example, a subscription falls on a Saturday and the Weekend Rule is to “Move to Monday”. If the sequence is “every3rd day”, the subscription booking is activated Monday (moved from Saturday) and then Tuesday (3 days from Saturday), Friday (3 days from Tuesday), and so on.
