Holiday Calendar FAQ

Q1: Are holidays connected to Timesheet or Payroll?
Yes. Holidays are automatically excluded from workdays in both modules — they reduce working days during salary generation and are excluded from timesheet workday counts.

Q2: Can I track employee leaves here?
No. Use the Leaves Module for that. Holidays are company-wide non-working days; leaves are individual time-off requests submitted by employees.

Q3: How do events appear in the calendar?
Events show as a coloured tile with the holiday Title on the date in the calendar grid (e.g., “New Year”, “Founder’s Day”). Hover or open the entry to read the optional Description.

Q4: Who can add holidays?
By default, only admins can add/edit/delete. Permission can be granted to other roles via Users → Roles (Holiday Edit / Delete permissions).

Q5: Will holidays appear on the dashboard?
Yes — in two places:

  • The Holiday Calendar card on the Dashboard.
  • The Announcements feed (auto reminder for upcoming holidays), if dashboard announcements are enabled.
