Holidays
Holiday periods can be entered to warn staff if there is a booking overlap, and deliveries/returns may not be achievable, or they may have to charge a special holiday rate for example.
You will be notified by:
A coloured heading on the holiday dates on the Availability screen (and drill down popup)
A coloured heading on the holiday dates on the Calendar screen
Warning prompts on the Sales Record screen (Quote/Booking/Invoice) when the booked dates clash with the holiday dates.
The holiday check is only done at the invoice level of booking/hire dates, and not at the item level.
To add a Holiday:
Navigate to Setup > Preferences > Holidays
Enter a Description for the holiday on a new row (such as Australia Day)
Enter the Date From and Date To (for example 26/01/2021 for both in this case).
