Create a new calendar with holidays

Go to Settings > Calendar groups. Here we can find different calendars.

If you want to add a new calendar click on the button +Add and name a new calendar.

Let's for example add a calendar for Denmark. When we are in the new calendar we named Denmark, choose the button Import holidays.

Let's find Denmark on the list of countries listed and click Import.

Pay attention to the notice:

We will import holidays for the next 20 years for the selected country/region. Existing holidays will be updated if they coincide with the imported ones.

We've created a new calendar for Denmark 🎉


Assign calendar to employees

When calendars are fully prepared you can assign them to a specific employee or group of employees. Go to Users, tick users you want to assign a particular calendar, click on Actions and choose Assign calendar group. See which calendar is assigned to the determined user in the column Calendar.


Other date limits in calendar

In addition to holidays, we can also add date limits such as Vacation transfer, Payday, Vacation cut into calendars. They are not mandatory but very useful for vacation and cutting running balance.

1️⃣ Vacation transfer
Set a limit for conversion of vacation balance to last year's vacation balance. This
limit is set on 1st January.

2️⃣ Payday
Useful limit if you want to cut running balance at the end of the month for example.

3️⃣ Last year's vacation cut
Set the date when you want to cut last year's vacation balance ig there is any left by your eployees.
