I have a need to integrate Workflow with external calendar.
The calendar has all weekends and holidays, so when duration need to be set in activity it considers all non working days.
Does someone have experience with this subject ?
Any ideas appreciated

I suggest 3 options, where common element of all is the Business Day reference table.
This table should contain atleast 2 mandatory fields: Date and Working hours (and any additional information what you need).
1. WorkFlow -> XML message -> MQSI (compute node) -> reference table.
2. WorkFlow -> XML message -> MQSI (Java Plugin node) - reference table.
3. WorkFlow -> Java programm -> reference table.

I use a java class that is based on the REXX Basedate. With this method and a properties file listing the holidays, it is fairly simple to caculate days of week, and then the holidays can come out of the property file.
GOOD LUCK

Thanks for answers.
What's about product/adapter solution ? Is there any other ready solutions ?
It's only for a pilot and I don't have much time to develop.

I am unaware of any off the shelf solutions... but that doesn't mean that none exist.
