Holidays and Seniority Schemes

The chapters below will help you configure holidays and seniority schemes and link them to employees. There are two types of holiday definitions in Astrow:

Fixed: The employees are given a fixed amount of holiday at the beginning of the period, which they can use during the period regardless of the working period (see Fixed Holiday Definition and Use).
Accrual: The holiday is given progressively based on their working period (e.g. 2.08 days per month). Employees cannot take in advance more holiday than what had been accrued (see Holiday Accrual Definition and Use).

Both types of holiday can be used independently.

For each holiday counter, you can set days and/or hours with negative and/or positive balance to be carried over to the following period. These values can be entered, either directly in the definition of each employee or using the Holiday Settings window in the Configuration menu. You can also choose to set an automatic holiday calculation for each holiday counter using holiday schemes. In addition, you can use the Holiday card to consult the holiday status of each employee.
