Add Country Specific Holidays

Use the Holiday Calendars tab under the Holidays and Absence submodule to add country specific holidays to selected holiday calendars.

To use the Holidays and Absence submodule, you must have access to Settings as defined in the User Access Rights submodule under Settings.
