Holiday Table

The Holiday Table maps holiday dates to each location in DATABASICS for accurate time tracking, payroll calculations, compliance, and scheduling. The dates are flagged as holidays on a timesheet and if enabled by an administrator from system options, can be pre-populated with holiday hours.

2. Click Location.
3. Select a Location.
4. Click the [Holidays] tab.

6. In the pop up window, select
   1. [LocationFrom] - Select an existing location with holidays that you would like to copy to this location.
   2. [CopyMethod] - Select one of the options below:
      
      1. Overwrite - write over existing holidays
      2. Merge - merge with existing holidays
