Detailed Description

You can now create absence counting rules that differentiate between holidays that fall on scheduled working days and holidays on non-working days. Absence counting rules now include the Planned Hours Excluding Holidays parameter. This parameter helps ensure that absences on holidays that are also working days can be counted correctly, while holidays on non-working days are not considered for deduction. Temporary schedule changes are also reflected in the parameter, further improving accuracy.
