Why Are Public Holidays Not Showing On The Calendar?

For public holidays to show on leave calendars they need to be added to a public holiday calendar. Each of these public holiday calendars are only applicable to the country and location that each is set to. In the example shown below, all locations (Location: All) in Great Britain (Applies to locations in country: GB).

Users in other geographic locations will not normally see public holidays for locations they are not in on their Dashboard or other leave calendars on LeaveWizard.

They can however tick the ‘Show public holidays for all locations’ setting on their Leave Calendar page to see all public holidays for all locations. This setting is on the Leave Calendar sub menu which any user can access by selecting the ‘Leave Calendar’ option from Calendars on the main menu.

Making public holidays from other countries and/or locations display on leave calendars will not change how those days are treated by the system with regards to request durations and allowances.

Normally it is only Administrators that may need to see all public holidays used by a company so this feature is undocumented for Managers and Employees. However, the Administrator, can advise any user to tick the ‘Show public holidays for all locations’ setting if they are needed.
