Overview
This guide will give you an understanding of the different ways you can add and manage Custom Holidays in e-days.
How can I import Custom Holidays?
- Manually adding – Easily add individual Custom Holidays one by one (e.g. a special Bank Holiday for the Queen’s Jubilee).
- Importing – Bulk-upload multiple Custom Holidays across regions in one go.
Flexibility of Custom Holidays
- Create Custom Holidays for different countries or regions (e.g. UK Christmas Shutdown, or Company meeting)
- Decide whether each Custom Holiday group deducts from users’ entitlement or not.
- Apply groups globally (all users) or to a subset by template or specific user
- Updates cascade automatically when dates change.
TIP: Review your Custom Holiday groups annually to ensure accuracy.
