Company holidays

Manage company holidays (public holidays, weekends, company closures) on the Holidays tab of the HR settings page. They appear in blue on the Holiday manager calendar, and they tell the system which days are working days. You can add them one by one, import them from Excel, or use Machine load to fill a whole year with weekends and public holidays in one go.

Open the page from Settings → HR settings or with the gear icon on the Holiday manager page; editing requires admin rights.

Why it matters

Every day that is not listed as a company holiday counts as a working day. So weekends belong in the list too – unless your team works weekends. A public holiday that was never entered counts as a working day, which, for example, inflates the expected hours in the monthly work-time check. Leave cannot be requested for a company holiday either.

Machine load

  1. Click Machine load.
  2. Choose the year (the current or the next one).
  3. Under Recurring weekly rest days, tick the rest days (Saturday and Sunday by default).
  4. Click Generate preview. The list shows the selected weekdays and the public holidays.
  5. In the preview you can change names and dates, remove rows, or add one with + Add.
  6. Save adds the list to the company holidays. Days that already exist are not added again.

Public holidays are loaded for the country on the team's billing address; for a Hungarian address from the official Hungarian public-holiday calendar. Rescheduled working days (working Saturdays) are not added as holidays, so they count as working days. If the billing address has no country, or no holiday list is available for it, machine load shows an error. Enter earlier years manually or by Excel import.

Adding, editing, deleting

In the … menu above the list, Add opens a new row: enter the name, the start date and (for a multi-day holiday) the end date, then click Add. Edit a row with the pencil icon and delete it with the bin icon.

Import and export

  • Import holidays: load holidays from an Excel file. The "Import holidays" article describes the file format.
  • Export: saves the holidays of a chosen period to an Excel file; up to one year at a time (shortcuts: previous year, this year, next year).
