The Account Owner and team Admins can set up your team’s regional and custom holidays in Team settings > Time off.

Public holidays

Public holidays make it easy to schedule time off across countries and cultures. You can add regional holidays to specific team members without impacting others.

From the Public holidays section, click Select and choose the country, region, holidays, and team members you’d like to add. Click Select holidays to add them to the Schedule.

​The public holiday days are blocked out for those team members, and the holiday names and locations are displayed when you hover over the dot next to the date on the Schedule.

💡 Here's a tip: You can manually override a public holiday and schedule an allocation by clicking on the day on the person's schedule. It'll count as overtime in your reports.

If a specific holiday you want to add is not listed among those in the selected region, you can add a custom holiday. You can create custom holidays when you set up your initial public holidays or later on by selecting Add custom holiday.

​You can check and edit the public holiday group that each team member belongs to in the Availability tab of their profile.

📝Note: People cannot belong to multiple public holidays groups.

Team holidays

Use the Team holidays option to apply a holiday to your entire team regardless of their location.

💡 Here's a tip: Individual vacations, sick leave, or personal time can be added directly from the Schedule. See this article for more info.

Additional info

  • Scheduling a holiday will overwrite any existing work planned for that date. Any allocations already scheduled on these dates will be removed.

  • Public holidays are scheduled for the current year and the following year.

  • Deleting a set of public holidays will remove the holidays from the associated team member's schedules.
