Holiday Calendar

Overview

The Holiday Calendar section within the Incident Management module allows you to configure specific dates when the support team is unavailable or has adjusted hours due to holidays. This ensures that incident management processes align with your organization's operational schedule.

Note: BOSSDesk will automatically exclude these dates when calculating ticket due dates, SLA targets, and execution of time-based rules.
