Managing company holidays and important dates
Last updated
MangoApps allows administrators to add holidays and important dates for different office locations, ensuring they are displayed on employees' calendars. A notification automatically appears under the bell icon a day before the scheduled company holiday or important date.
Use the Locations and Year drop-downs to filter holidays and important dates based on office locations.
Countries will appear in the drop-down menu only if they have holidays listed in the table already.
The list displays all holidays and important dates added to your domain for all office locations.
A user’s office location determines the holidays displayed in their calendar.
Holiday Details
Each entry in the list includes:
Title: The name of the company holiday/important event, used in notifications and calendar labels.
Type: Two types are available:
Company Holiday: Dates when the office is closed for business.
Important Date: Significant events in a country that may not necessarily be office holidays.
Date: The date of the company holiday/important event.
Description: Additional details (up to 500 characters).
Location: The specific office locations where the holiday applies.
To add a holiday, click the Add New Holiday button located at the top right hand side of the screen.
This will bring up the Add New Holiday menu.
Within this menu:
Select the Type (Company Holiday or Important Date).
Enter a Title for the holiday. This Title will be displayed to applicable users on the configured date.
Select the Date. Use the + Add End Date/Time option for multi-day holidays or specific time durations.
Enter a Description (optional).
Choose the Country or Location that observes this holiday (office locations where the holiday applies).
Click Save. The holiday or important date will now appear on the holiday list and to applicable users in the user portal.
Alternatively to manually adding holidays, admins can use the Popular Holiday Finder menu to quickly find and add widely celebrated holidays for specific countries.
Click the Popular Holiday Finder button located next to the Add New Holiday Button at the top of the screen. This will bring up the Popular Holiday Finder menu.
Select a Country and Year to fetch the holiday list.
Toggle holidays on/off as needed. Admins can click Enable All to add all holidays for the selected country at once. To remove holidays from the company holiday list, use the Delete option in the three-dot action menu next to each holiday in the selected company holiday list.
Click Save to finalize the holidays in the company holiday list.
Click the three dots menu next to a holiday to access additional options for a selected holiday.
Select Edit, Clone, or Delete as needed to manage the holidays list.
Only network admins can manage holidays and important dates.
