Creating Holiday Rules

In System Settings, select Holiday Rules.

Click Actions, and then New.

Enter:

Holiday Rule ID

This is the attribute that will uniquely identify the record for LCM purposes. Holiday Rule ID is mandatory and must be unique.
Name

The name of the holiday rule is mandatory and can be up to 50 characters. Uniqueness is not required.
Year

The Year attribute behaves as a filter option. Users need not select a value for this attribute. If they do, then the table should be filtered to display the dates associated with the selected year.

To name a holiday, in the Holiday section, click Import

to import the list of holidays.

On the bottom section of Holiday Rules, select Actions, and then Import.

Enter the file name, or click Browse to navigate to the CSV import file.
