Holiday Treatment
Holiday treatment
Holiday treatment is the configuration based on which the system moves a due date of a payment schedule to a working date if it falls on a holiday.
The configuration is based on the following two factors:
Schedule Adjustment Method: This determines which way the due date should move if it falls on a holiday, to the previous working day or the next.
Move Across Months flag: This determines if the scheduled due date can be moved to the next or the previous month in case it falls on the last day or the first day of the month.
