About exception validity

Exceptions are applicable only for a specific time period. This time period is specified when the exception is requested. You can modify the time period when you edit the exception.

The exception validity time period consists of the following terms:

Effective date

The start date when the exception is applied to the specified objects.

When you modify an exception, you can only postpone the effective date. For example, if the validity period is 24th Aug to 26th Aug, you can change the effective date to 25th or 26th Aug. You cannot change the date to 23rd Aug.

Effective time

The local time at which the exception validity period begins. The exception is applied to the specified objects at this time on the specified effective date.

When an exception is created or modified, the effective time by default is 12:00 a.m. local time.

Expiration date

The end date when the exception no longer remains valid. From this date onward, the exception is not applied to the specified objects.

The expiration date must be equal to or greater than the effective date. You can change this date when you modify an exception.

Expiration time

The local time at which the exception validity period ends. The exception becomes invalid at this time on the specified expiration date.

When an exception is created or modified, the expiration time by default is 11:59 p.m. local time.

When the current date exceeds the expiration date, the exceptions are automatically marked as expired.
