Vacation Bidding Setup

In Vacation Bidding Setup, you configure the settings and components that are used to build your organization’s vacation bidding sessions in Dayforce.

This section is intended for administrators responsible for configuring vacation bidding. It describes how to configure the vacation bidding policies, calendars, and vacation bidding groups that managers will use to create bidding sessions in Vacation Bidding > Vacation Bidding Sessions.

Role feature access: Vacation Bidding Setup

Information about configuring vacation bidding sessions, groups, notifications, and policies are described in detail below:

Important: In the Vacation Bidding Setup feature, configure the vacation bidding settings and components in the order that’s outlined above. Some configuration processes are dependent on other vacation bidding functionality already existing in Dayforce. For example, before you can configure vacation bidding periods in the Calendars tab, you must configure a bidding policy in the Bidding Policy tab. If you configure a calendar first, Dayforce prevents you from saving your calendar configuration because you must assign a bidding policy to the calendar, which in this scenario, doesn’t exist yet in Dayforce.
