Work > School Year Calendar

In the Work > School Year Calendar screen in People, you can assign employees to school year calendars so that any school rules you’ve configured in your scheduling policy will apply:

School Year Calendar screen.

While you typically add school year calendars in Schedule Setup > School Year, you can also add them in the Work > School Year Calendar screen of People. There are two major differences between school year calendars created in Schedule Setup and those created in People:

  • Unlike school year calendars created in Schedule Setup (where users must specifically define the area of the organization to which the school year calendar applies) the ones created in People are available to the organizational unit the user creating it manages, or (for users who manage multiple locations) the organizational unit the user has selected in the organizational hierarchy.
  • When a school year is added in Work > School Year Calendar, Dayforce automatically uses the text from the Name field as the cross-reference code. See Cross-Reference Codes.

To view a school year calendar for the selected employee, click the School Year Calendar Assignment drop-down list and select an assignment. If the employee hasn’t previously been assigned a school year calendar assignment in Schedule Setup > School Year, Dayforce doesn’t display any assignments in the drop-down list. In that case, you can add a school year calendar for the employee.
