Manage non-holiday periods in Workforce using GIR 3

Workforce allows operations managers to configure non-holiday periods in GIR 3 to ensure staff scheduling is consistent with the new system design and to avoid confusion with legacy settings.

Start from: The Workforce Dashboard.

• From the main menu, go to Configuration > Configuration by business unit.

Note: If you still see the path Configuration > Non-holiday periods, you are working on GIR 2. This screen has been deprecated. Please use Configuration > Configuration by business unit instead.

• Select the Business Unit you want to configure.

• Select the Holidays tab.
• Locate the Non-holiday periods section.

Create a new Non-holiday period

• Select + Period.
• Set a Start and End date for the period.
• Select + Add. The period will now be added to the list.

Note: You can continue adding periods by using the + Period button again.

• Select Accept to save your new non-holiday periods.

Delete a Non-holiday period

• In the Holidays tab, review the list of existing non-holiday periods.
• Select Delete (the trash can icon) on the period’s line.

• A confirmation window will appear.
• Select Delete again to complete the removal.

Note: Unlike GIR 2, you cannot edit a period once it has been created. If you need to make changes, delete the old period and create a new one.
