⚠️ Important: The system does not automatically update holidays every year, because:

  • Some holidays change dates yearly.

  • Not all companies follow the same state holidays.

You need to update your company’s holiday list each year.

Note: Some state holidays may already be included under the Public Holidays function, depending on the state. Check the State Holidays list to avoid duplicates.
