We have not found a central place to manage public holidays for existing and new users in GroupWise.

Current solution 1: create an ICS file and send this to all user (likewise new user)
Current solution 2: 1 User create all Tasks in GroupWise and send this to all User; new users have to be covered again

Wish:
Under System (comparison Global signatures) a function like 'Public holidays Task Manager'
- a group assignable rule (if locations in different countries)
- a simple List to add days
- MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY | description | time (whole day / time slot xx:xx - xx:xx)
=> all group member receive automaticly the public holiday task's, as well retrospectively created new users

Thank You for voting

  • We use a shared calendar for this.

  • Unfortunately, shared calendars don't sync via GroupWise Mobility Service.

  • Whoops, I spoke out of turn, shared items do sync now. It just needs to be enabled in GMS. But I still like this idea better.

  • The drawback to the shared calendar is that the admin has more work. Re-share if a user accidentally deletes and share every time a new employee is added.
