As the exact days of certain public holidays are not always declared in advance, the Admin can go back and edit or delete a particular public holiday from the Holiday Calendar on Bayzat.
Editing a Public Holiday
Step 1
Under Settings > Configuration > Company, expand the Holiday Calendars icon.
Step 2
Select the Holiday Calendar you wish to edit and use the edit icon to adjust a specific public holiday on the list.
Step 3
Make the change to the date range. You will be notified that this change will affect the number of days for certain employees who have already applied for time off during that period.
Deleting a Public Holiday
Step 1
Under Settings > Configuration > Company, expand the Holiday Calendars icon.
Step 2
Click on the 'Delete' icon to remove the the public holiday that is no longer required in your Holiday Calendar list.
Step 3
Confirm the deletion of this public holiday. You will be notified whether this deletion will affect the number of days for any employee/s who have already applied for time off for that day/during that period.
How does this affect existing leave requests falling on a public holiday?
The platform will recalculate the days taken for any 'already applied leaves' that are affected by the update to the dates/date range of the revised public holiday.
This automatic re-calculation for public holiday adjustments will only take place under these conditions:
Existing leave requests should be in the current or a future leave cycle as the system will not recalculate days from the previous leave cycle
Restriction for editing should be turned ON for that particular time off policy
The admin is given an option to send out an email to all the employees who were affected.
