Add a holiday

  1. Click Add holiday.
  2. Choose the Holiday group and, if needed, the branch it applies to.
  3. Enter the Holiday name (for example "Eid ul-Fitr"), Start date and End date.
  4. Choose who it applies to: Everyone, Religion-specific, Department-specific or Custom rule.
  5. Set options: Counts as paid holiday, Show on employee calendar, Repeats every year.
  6. Click Save Holiday.

"Repeats every year" holidays show Every year in the list; others show One time.

Bangladesh public holidays

  1. Click Bangladesh holidays.
  2. Tick the holidays you want, or use Select all or Clear.
  3. Click Add {n} holidays.

Fixed-date holidays come with correct dates. Holidays set by the moon calendar (Eid, Durga Puja, Buddha Purnima and others) change every year, so check and adjust their dates each year. Imported holidays are fully editable.

Calendars and assignments

Different groups can follow different calendars, for example staff of a different religion or a branch abroad.

  1. Click New calendar, name it, and choose whether to Include all common holidays as base. A No-holiday calendar (comp-off instead) is for people who work holidays and earn compensatory leave.
  2. Add holidays to it.
  3. Click Assign calendars, choose the calendars and employees, then Save assignment.

Each calendar card shows its holidays, employees and days per year.

Example scenario

Padma Net Support adds the Bangladesh presets for 2026, then corrects the Eid dates after the moon sighting. The NOC team runs 24 hours, so it gets a No-holiday calendar (comp-off instead). Engineers who work on Eid earn compensatory leave in Leave.

Tips

  • Do this every December for the next year.
  • Tick Repeats every year for fixed dates such as 16 December and 21 February.

Troubleshooting and FAQ

A holiday does not show for an employee. Check the calendar assignment and the eligibility rule (religion or department).

Attendance still shows absent on a holiday. Regenerate attendance for those dates.
