    Propagate Local Holiday to Branches

    Click the toggle to enable this feature.

    If enabled, system verify whether Default Local Holiday from HO is selected and no local holiday is maintained in the branch and then propagate the local holidays to the branch.

    If disabled, the system does not default the local holidays to branches.

    Any amendments made at the HO branch will not be propagated to branches if the holiday calendar already exists at the branch level.

    After propagation, any changes to the holiday calendar must be made at the branch level.

    If a new branch is created after the local holiday is maintained at the HO, the holiday will not be propagated to the new branch, even if the Default Local Holiday from HO option is set to Yes.

    Holidays for that particular year must be maintained at the branch level
