Setting Up Holiday Calendars

Holiday calendars establish the days that agency offices are closed and no field service operations are offered.

These days appear as unavailable, non-working days in calendar views throughout the system such as for public user and inspector calendars. Non-working days in holiday calendars apply to all employees and do not need to be defined for employee profiles.

Each holiday calendar spans a date range that you define. Within that date range, you define individual events for each non-working holiday.

Administrators add, modify, and delete holiday schedules and events on the Holiday Calendar page.
