# Holidays

> Manage the company, federal, and state holiday calendar for your organization.

The **Holidays** calendar tells PayPunch which days are company, federal, or state
holidays, so holiday time is handled consistently across your clients.

## Open the holiday calendar

Go to **Settings → Holidays**. The page shows a count of holidays for the selected
year and a table of every holiday with its **Name**, **Date**, **Type**,
**Recurring** flag, **Status**, and actions.

Filter the list by **Holiday Type** (All Types, Federal, State, Company) and by
**Year**.

## Add a holiday

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the dialog">
    Click **Add Holiday**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter the details">
    Provide a **Holiday Name** and **Date** (both required), and choose a **Type**
    — **Company**, **Federal**, or **State**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set options">
    Toggle **Recurring (repeats yearly)** if it falls on the same date every year,
    and **Active** to enable it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create">
    Click **Create Holiday**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Edit or delete

Use the **Edit** and **Delete** actions on any row. Editing reopens the same
fields (**Update Holiday**); deleting asks for confirmation and can't be undone.

<Note>
  A recurring holiday repeats on the same date each year, so you only enter it once.
  Mark a holiday **Inactive** instead of deleting it if you want to keep the record
  but not apply it.
