| # Period Tables (tcccp0160m000) Use this session to list and to maintain period tables. LN uses period tables to group periods with common attributes. For each period table you can define whether or not: LN must check if the dates that you define for a period in the Generate Periods (tcccp0270m000) session belong to the defined calendar year. LN can modify periods of which the period table is in use. LN can delete periods while their period table is in use. Gaps are allowed between two years. Once you have defined a period table, you can use the Periods (tcccp0170m000) session to define periods for that table. The periods defined for a table share the characteristics defined for the table; for example, the time zone code, and whether modification is allowed.
