Holiday Calendar
The Holiday Calendar lists the school's holidays for each academic year and shows the whole year at a glance. Leave Management uses it to decide which days count as leave, and the attendance registers shade these days. Admin and Principal add or edit holidays; teachers and accountants can only view the calendar.

Questions
Should I enter holidays for the whole year at once?
Yes, at the start of the session. Leave applications count days using the holidays that exist when the leave is applied. If you add a holiday later and a balance needs correcting, use Leave Settings › Adjust balance / credit Comp-off.
Staff worked on a holiday. How do they get a day back?
Credit a Compensatory Off (CO) in Leave Settings › Adjust balance / credit Comp-off, with the reason (for example: Worked on 15 Aug, Independence Day duty).
