Summary
Holidays in Payboy are defaulted to your country so for instance, a Vietnamese company will automatically follow Vietnamese calendar holidays.
However, the system is also flexible enough to allow companies to add their unique holidays, or remove certain holidays if need be.
A proper set-up of this will ensure an accurate and fuss-free calculation of payrolls at the end of the month.

From the left-side menu, head to Company > Holidays
At the top-right corner, click + New Holiday Group
Type in the Name of the holiday group
Click Submit to create the new group
Once the group is created, you can begin to set up the holidays applicable to the group. You can choose the option to Import Holidays or Add New Holidays.
