Do we need to make any changes in Fourth or will this kick in automatically?

Hi @Sharon Harkins​ 

 

This new change would need to be switched on by doing the following:

 

To switch on the 52 week holiday calculation:

 

  • Go to HR Module > Administration > Global Settings > Edit Default Holiday Settings > Holiday Calculations
  • Select 52 Weeks against the Calculation of average number of days worked based on 52, 26 or 12 weeks? setting

 

I hope this helps!

 

Best,

Zaina
