As a practitioner, you can create new holiday programs for your company. A holiday program is a series of specific holidays for which your company awards holiday pay. Your company may use multiple holiday programs if different groups of employees are allowed different holidays (for example, if your company has employees who work in two different countries). An employee's specific holiday schedule is determined by the holiday program that is assigned to his/her pay group.

Note: Although you can view, create, and edit holiday programs and add, delete, or edit specific holiday definitions within holiday programs, you cannot assign holiday programs to pay groups. If you need to change the holiday program assigned to a pay group, contact an ADP Time & Attendance Representative.

To copy a holiday program:

  1. From the Time & Attendance menu, select Setup.

    Note: If the Setup option is not visible, make sure that you have selected Practitioner in the Role Selector.

  2. Under the Setup tab, click the Holidays link. The Holidays page displays a list of the holiday programs defined for your company.

  3. Click the name of the holiday program you want to copy.

Note: You must enter a description in the text box marked with a red triangle ( required_field.gif ). If your company supports other languages, enter descriptions in the text boxes for those languages as well.

  1. Click the Submit button. The Holidays page refreshes and displays the newly created holiday program. The Holidays text box is no longer editable. You can now define the specific holidays to be included in the program. For instructions, see Adding a Holiday to a Holiday Program.
