How do I default public holidays on time cards?

You need to complete these steps before the holidays automatically appear for just the primary assignment.

1. If you haven't already, create a payroll element for public holidays, for each Legislative Data Group (LDG). For example, you could create the US Public Holiday element for the US and Canada Public Holiday element for Canada.

   These elements are used in time card list fields and to set the time attribute value when creating public holiday entries on time cards.

2. Generate Global Payroll time attributes for the data dictionary.
3. Set the payroll element as one of the payroll time type attribute values to include in the time card list field using the Time Entry Layout Components task.

   If your multiattribute time card field definitions contain attributes for multiple LDGs, you can add another row for each public holiday payroll element you created for those LDGs.

4. Make sure that you defined all observed public holidays for the appropriate geography or organization trees. Use the Manage Calendar Events task.
   • Be sure to set Category to Public holiday.
   • Define full-day public holidays as 12:00a to 12:00a.
5. Select the payroll element to use as the default time attribute value when automatically adding a public holiday entry to the time card. Use the Worker Time Processing Profile task.

   For example, if the people linked to the profile work in the US, you would select the US Public Holiday element.
