    Dear @Carlos Capurro Astaburuaga,

    Good day. Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum!

    In this case, please try these steps below and check if it works:

    If you are the owner, you can create custom work week calendars for each plan.

    Each plan is created using a default work template, which is based on the typical Monday through Friday work week. With Custom Calendars, you can select which days are a part of your work week, and the Planner scheduling engine will automatically update the plan to only schedule work on those days.
