Time events are objects that hold calendar-style events. They are used to define specific times at which certain things can occur. For instance, they can be used to define national holidays, business hours, or recurring events like daily or weekly tasks. Time events are helpful in specifying when to carry out specific tasks, such as scheduled reports or out-of-office prompts for workflow closing hours.
