You can enter any holidays your organization observes as a whole or in part (by employee type) and specify whether they're paid. Any holiday you add will appear on the employees' time cards and include the paid hours (if any) in the totals at the bottom of the day.


To add a new holiday, follow these steps:


  1. Click  >> Holidays.
     
    The Holidays screen will appear and display any holidays already on your organization's calendar in the current three-month period (counted from two months ago until one month in the future).
      
  2. Click  at the top right of the screen.
     
    The Add Holiday options will appear on the right.
      
  3. Type the name of the new holiday in the Name field, such as "Thanksgiving Day."
     
  4. In the Code field, type the holiday code exactly as your payroll system has it, as it will use the code to process payment for this type of holiday (if you plan to export TAA data for payroll and include holidays in that export).
     
  5. Click the Start calendar picker and select the beginning of the time span to include for the holiday (for example, the beginning of the winter break).
     
  6. Click the End calendar picker and select the end of the time period.
     
  7. Select the toggles for all the employee types for whom this holiday applies. ( means selected, and  deselected.)
     
  8. If certain employee types will be paid for this holiday, select the Paid toggle in their row to the right.
     
  9. At the top right of the Add Holiday section, click  to save your changes.
    Note: Clicking  will cancel the holiday addition (effectively deleting the new holiday before you've added it).
    A success message will appear at the top right of the screen.
