Deadlines and obligations

Deadline calculation rules by country

A calculation rule is stored as a setting, not hidden in the code. You can see it, check it and refine it for your organization or a specific instance.

What’s inside

  • Order of application: the country profile, then the organization setting, then a refinement for a specific court instance.
  • The dispute category is taken into account: claim response and appeal deadlines differ between disputes.
  • Counting in calendar or business days, months or years by the country’s business calendar.
  • If the last day falls on a weekend, the deadline moves according to the country rule.
  • The appeal period runs from the date the court judgment is received, not from the hearing date.
  • Ready-made rules and business calendars for five countries ship with the product.

FAQ

Can we change a rule if the deadline is different in our practice?

Yes. The organization overrides the country rule, and a refinement can be set for a specific instance. The change applies to new deadlines.

What if our country is not among the five?

A jurisdiction can be any country. Without a country profile, a deadline is counted by a standard working week, and the organization sets up the rules itself.
