Answer: Adding or modifying Paid Holidays is an easy process. We have a step by step article that will give you all the details necessary for your Paid Holidays.

Answer: Once the new calendar year has started, all approved requests will be deducted and shown in the audit trail. Also, the new balance will be available at that time.

3. Why can’t employees take time off in the next calendar year?

Answer: The Future Calendar Year setting allows your employees to take time off in the next calendar year. For more information on making that change, visit our Employee Permissions article situated in the knowledge base.

4. How can I confirm that all of my employees will renew on January 1st?

Answer: You can run the Allowance Settings report by going to Time-Off →  Reports →  Allowance Settings. This will show you a column called “Renewal Date” which you can use to verify when the Time-Off Type will renew.
