Company Holidays: Add

Company Holiday Groups are added to your platform as part of tenant creation, however you may wish to add additional company holiday groups to accommodate for employees who work in different regions.

Step One

Navigate to the Holiday and Absence area of the platform in Administration mode then select the COMPANY HOLIDAYS tab.

🚀 If you are using our new menu feature, hover over the Holiday & Absence section of the side-bar, then navigate to:

Configuration ➡️ Company Holidays 

Select the ➕ next to Company Holidays and skip to step three of this guide.

Step Two

Click on the ADD button to the right hand side of the screen, this will open up the ADD COMPANY HOLIDAY pull-out drawer.

Step Three

Specify a name for the company holiday group in the title field, and include a description in the text box provided.

If this is the company holiday you wish to apply to all new users, switch on the Default toggle.

Step Four

In the effective from and effective to fields, enter the date which this company holiday covers.

  We would recommend having one company holiday group in the platform (for each region) and expanding the effective to date accommodate multiple years.

This avoids any complication when employees are booking leave for the next holiday year, and prevents manual efforts when switching the employee's holiday group at the end of the year.

Step Five

If this group applies to a specific department or person, you can specify the name in the drop-down fields.

Step Six

Click the SAVE button at the bottom of the form to add the group to the platform.

You can now add the non-working days to the group.
