Through the “Create Holiday Master” activity, you can create holiday masters under a given organization group. A holiday master is used to uniquely identify the set of holidays applicable for a specific organization unit, or for multiple organization units under the organization group.

Listing the Holidays: After you provide a unique code and description to identify the holiday master, you are to specify the list of holidays under it. To carry this out, you are to enter the date of each holiday and the holiday name.

Using the Holiday List from Other Organization Units: Instead of entering the list of holidays, you can choose to upload any other holiday master defined for an organization unit under this organization group. When this holiday master is uploaded, the system displays the list of holidays under it. From this list of holidays, you can delete or modify holidays, to customize the holiday list to the requirements of the new organization unit. You can also add to the list of holidays

Effective Period: You must specify the period for which this list of holidays is effective. For example, this list of holidays could be effective from 1 January 2002 to 1 January 2006.

Specifying Applicability to Organization Units: You are to specify the organization units for which the holiday list will be applicable. You can define whether the holiday will be applicable for

• The login organization unit

• All organization units

• Selective organization units. If you choose this option, you are to enter a separate page and choose the required organization units individually
