Creating Japanese Annual Holiday Date Records

Annual Holiday Date records are custom records used to check or validate if payment due dates on invoices and credit memos fall on defined local holiday or non-operational day dates. This record specifies the exact date (day, month and year) of a Holiday Type.

When naming the Annual Holiday Date, include the year, followed by its corresponding Holiday Type, such as 2020 Showa Day. This will let you see and sort holidays for a specific year when assigning Annual Holiday Date records to Japanese subsidiaries.

To create Annual Holiday Date records:

  1. Go to Setup > Japan Localization > Annual Holiday Dates > New.

  2. In the Name field, enter a name for the Annual Holiday Date record.

    You should include the year and Holiday Type (such as '2020 Show Day') for identification.

  3. In the Holiday Type field, select the Holiday Type associated with this Annual Holiday Date record.

  4. In the Date field, specify the date of the holiday.

  5. Click Save.

Note:

If you check the Inactive box, the system won't use this Annual Holiday Date for validating a payment due date. You can't delete an Annual Holiday Date record that is already assigned to a subsidiary.
