Holidays

The Holidays page enables you to create a list of all the holidays used within your organization without regard to location, employees, and so forth.

  1. Select the appropriate year from the drop-down box and click Select Holidays.
  2. In the Select Holidays box, move the appropriate holidays from the Available Holidays box to the Selected Holidays box.
  3. Click Save & Return.
  4. In the Holidays table:
    • Review the Start Date/Start Time and End Date/End Time columns, adjusting them as necessary for the selected year.
    • If desired, add an abbreviation in the Code column.
  5. To add more holidays, click Insert new row and complete the corresponding columns as desired.

The holiday table can be modified after it is configured. Note the following when editing the holiday table:

  • Edit holidays at least two pay period cycles before the revised holiday dates.
  • After a holiday date is edited, any retroactive pay edits affecting the period including the last occurrence of that holiday will be inaccurate.
  • Before changing holiday dates, ensure that sign-off have been run for the dates.
  • Add multiple years of holidays to support retroactive pay calculations.
  • After entering new holidays, make sure that they are selected in the zone rules and pay rules.
  • Delete holidays that are not used or are entered incorrectly. (A holiday is “in use” if it is selected in one or more pay or zone rules.)
  • Holiday names can be edited after they are saved in the Holiday table.
  • The same display name can be used on multiple holidays, but each instance of a holiday needs a unique name and start year.
  • If you change the holiday or display name in one year, it is changed for all years.
