Public holidays in EasyLeave are defined per group and synced to every member of that group. This covers the vast majority of situations, and most teams will never need anything else.

In rare, edge-case scenarios, however, an employee has the same public holiday as the rest of their group, but on a different date. Adding the same holiday to a second, employee-specific group would result in duplicate timesheets and calendar appointments for that person.

For these exceptional cases, use the Excluded employees field when creating or editing a public holiday. Select one or more employees with the people picker (linked to Entra).

Excluded employees are skipped during sync: no timesheet entry is created for them and they are not added as required attendees to the calendar appointment. The correct date can then be defined for them in a separate group.
