Holiday List
The company holidays for a year, used by leave and payroll. No ledger effect.
In detail
A Holiday List names the public holidays and weekly off days for a year, such as the 2083 list with Dashain and Tihar, and is attached to the Company and to employees. It drives leave calculations, attendance and payroll working days, and has no accounts and no ledger effect. In BRAccount it also matters for due dates: Payment Terms that count working days skip the holidays listed here. Nepal's holidays are announced each year by the government, so the list must be recreated every fiscal year. An out of date list quietly miscounts the days in payroll.
How to record it in BRAccount
- 01Go to Setup > Holiday List > New.
- 02Name it, for example 2083 Holidays, and set From Date and To Date to the fiscal year.
- 03Click Add Weekly Holidays and pick Saturday.
- 04Add rows for each public holiday with its date and description.
- 05Save, then set it as Default Holiday List on the Company.
When to use it
Create under Setup > Holiday List and set it on the Company.
