To pay holiday bonus days, you can create a separate salary type that reduces the paid holiday bonus days from the holiday pay debt and holiday bonus accruals.

A separate salary type is needed for handling holiday bonus days, which will be linked to the salary type holiday bonus. You can create a new salary type at Payroll > Payroll > Salary model management > Company-specific salary types > Add new salary type

The settings for the salary type are defined as shown in the image below. Note that there should be no checkmark in the "Included in calculation by default" section, as the salary type for holiday bonus days is selected separately for inclusion in the calculation. Also, add the income type and account postings if necessary.


Save the salary type.

Then go to Payroll > Payroll > Salary model management and select the formulas for the salary model to be processed (the image below is an example).


Link the salary type Holiday bonus days to the salary type Salary in money by selecting "Edit" next to the salary type.


Click the green plus sign twice and link the salary type to the salary in money formula as shown in the image below. Remember to save the addition.


You will now find the salary type Holiday bonus days under the Holidays and absences heading in the salary model's salary type formulas: Payroll > Payroll > Salary model management > Select salary model > Formulas > Salary type formulas tab > Holidays and absences > Holiday bonus days > Edit

Next, a formula must be created for the salary type Holiday bonus days. Select "Edit" next to the salary type Holiday bonus days .

Add the salary type Holiday bonus (which would normally be used to pay holiday bonuses) to the formula and multiply it by -1 and save the changes. (Holiday bonus days = "Holiday bonus * -1") Example image below.


The holiday bonuses to be taken as days off are marked for the employee in the payroll process under "Check selected payroll criteria" in the box "Payable holiday bonus days".


Additionally, in the "Check selected payroll criteria" phase, the salary type Holiday bonus days must be selected for inclusion in the payslip under the heading "Salary types with manual calculation".

This way, the holiday bonuses taken as days off will also be reduced from the holiday bookkeeping. The salary types "Holiday bonus days" and "Holiday bonus" will be formed on the payslip. In the example image below, one holiday bonus day is recorded on the payslip.
