There are two ways to define holidays to employees: manually and based on seniority scheme.
1. Holidays manual definition
Select the dates for the different periods (previous, current and next year). These periods are by default set from 1 January until 31 December, but can also overlap.

For example you can set the period 1 January 2015 - 1 March 2016, if you want the holiday entitlement to be available for a longer period, or you can set a carry over (CO+).

Fill in the following fields for each period:
Given: Enter the number of days 
and hours 
of the holiday that can be taken during the corresponding period (this reflects the holiday counter definition - in days, hours or hours and days).
and hours of the holiday that can be taken during the corresponding period (this reflects the holiday counter definition - in days, hours or hours and days).CO+: Enter the remaining days and hours of the holiday that can be carried over to the next period (this also reflects the holiday counter definition - positive or negative).
and hours of the holiday that can be carried over to the next period (this also reflects the holiday counter definition - positive or negative).CO-: Enter the number of days and hours of the holiday that can be carried over to the next period as a negative balance (this also reflects the holiday counter definition - positive or negative).
and hours of the holiday that can be carried over to the next period as a negative balance (this also reflects the holiday counter definition - positive or negative). If some fields are unavailable, check the holiday counters definition.
