7.3 Executing Holiday Calendar

Execute a Holiday Calendar definition to generate calendar dates listing the various types of holidays for a given holiday period.

Predefined rules are a prerequisite to execute the Holiday Calendar.

To execute the Holiday Calendar, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Holiday Calendar Summary page.
2. Search for a rule.
3. Select a Holiday Calendar and Click the Generate Calendar Dates icon to execute the selected Holiday Calendar.
   Holiday list for holiday ID #1 generated successfully message appears (where #1 is the Holiday Calendar code). The holiday list can be confirmed by querying the FSI_HOLIDAY_LIST table.
4. The status of a Holiday Calendar where holiday dates are generated displays as Processed in the status column on the summary page.
   If you do not want to Generate Calendar dates immediately, you can select that particular Holiday Calendar anytime later from the summary page with its status defined, and then click the Generate Calendar Dates icon to execute the selected Holiday Calendar.
5. The generated holiday list is no longer valid if:
   1. There is a change in the definition of the Holiday Calendar.
   2. There is an update or modification to the Holiday Exceptions defined for that holiday calendar.
   In such a case, you will get a message “This Holiday Calendar has been modified, Please generate the holiday list again” and the Holiday Calendar state will be changed to Defined until the holiday list is regenerated with a new definition.
