Introduction
You can create unlimited Holiday holiday plans to reflect the holidays and observances. Each non-working day resulting from the holiday plan reduces the capacity (daily capacity to zero) of the assigned resource or the Teamteam.
Similarly, like with Workload plans users can be assigned to those plans using the Resource Manager (You can assign holiday plans to multiple individuals on the following pages:
BigPicture Administration > Resources > Individuals
...
BigPicture Administration > Resources > Holiday plans

The App BigPicture can calculate tasks automatically based on the assignee's working days. Jira admins can enable this feature in the BigPicture configuration. |
...
The holidays can be grouped into a set, such as European Holidaysholidays. If the organization also has offices in the United States, a holiday set can also be created for that region. This expedites the planning process as information is easily accessed across the organization.
