Holidays

Org-level lists of non-working days that extend task deadlines and ETAs for your team.

Holidays are named lists of non-working days for your organisation. They behave like extra weekend days: when a holiday falls inside a task's working window, the deadline and the estimated finish time stretch to skip it, just as they skip Saturdays and Sundays.

Where it lives

Workspace, HR, Holidays.

How holidays apply to people

Each member resolves to exactly one effective holiday list:

  1. If the member is explicitly assigned to a list, that list applies.
  2. Otherwise, the organisation default list applies (if one is marked as default).
  3. If neither applies, the member observes no holidays.

This means you can keep one default list for the whole company and create extra lists only for teams or regions that observe different days.

What holidays affect

A holiday is treated as a non-working day in every working-hours calculation:

  • Task deadlines spawned by workflows extend to skip the holiday.
  • Estimated finish times (ETAs) widen accordingly.
  • Recurring tasks that would land on a holiday roll forward, and the person who set up the recurrence is notified when that happens.

Holidays do not need any per-task setup, once a list applies to someone, every deadline calculation for that person accounts for it automatically.

The Holidays page

The page shows one card per holiday list. Each card displays:

  • The list name.
  • A Default badge if it is the org default.
  • How many days the list contains.
  • How many members it applies to, with an avatar preview.

The default list's card notes that it applies to everyone (plus any explicitly assigned members).

Creating a list

  1. Click New list (top-right).
  2. Give the list a name, for example India holidays 2026.
  3. Toggle Default for org if this list should apply to everyone who isn't on another list. Only one list can be the default; promoting a new one clears the old default.
  4. Add holidays and members (see below).
  5. Click Create list.

Adding holidays

Inside the list editor, the Holidays section is a table of dates:

  • Each row has a name, a start date, and an optional end date.
  • Leave the end date blank for a single-day holiday, or click Multi-day to set a range (useful for things like a festival break).
  • Click Add holiday to add another blank row.

You can also import from a file. Click Import from file to load a CSV or XLSX sheet, the header row is auto-detected and column order does not matter. Click See example formats for accepted layouts (single date, separate start/end columns, ranges inside one column, or no header at all).

Assigning members

The Members sidebar in the editor controls who the list applies to. Use the picker to add members. Because each member can be on only one list at a time, assigning someone here automatically removes them from whichever list they were on before.

If the list is the default and has no explicit members, it simply applies to everyone in the org.

Editing or deleting a list

Open a list with the Manage button on its card. From the editor you can rename it, change the default toggle, edit holidays and members, or Delete the list. When you delete a list, its members fall back to the org default list (if there is one).

Permissions you'll need

Anyone with workspace access can view holiday lists. Creating, editing, or deleting lists, and changing who they apply to, requires the Manage Organisation permission, which Owners and Admins have by default. Members without it see a read-only View button instead of Manage.
