---++ Parameter: holidays

---+++++ What:

If this parameter is present then the order entry system automatically shifts *pickup-* and *delivery dates* to a later date.<br />
This is also true for EDI files sent to CargoOffice.

---+++++ Where:

The parameter holidays can be found here:
   * Backoffice -&gt; Settings -&gt; Parameters -&gt; Order Entry, table: holidays

---+++++ How to use:

The format of this parameter is:
   * yyyy-mm-dd [countries] (any text behind).
Example:
   * 2018-12-25 (christmas)
Example for specific countries (country names or codes must be separated by a comma)
   * 2018-12-26 NL,BE (christmas day2)
   * *Note:* you enter either country codes or country names depending on what you enter in the order entry form. Names and codes are case-insensitive.

Skip weekends:
   * Skipweekends=yes/no (yes = weekends are skipped, like holidays)

Param content example:

<verbatim>
# Holidays : format = yyyy-mm-dd (any text behind). 
# Example:
# 2018-12-25 (christmas)
#
# only for specific countries:
# 2018-12-26 NL,BE (christmas day2)
#
# Skipweekends=yes/no (yes = weekends are skipped, like holidays)
skipweekends=yes
#
2018-12-25 (christmas)
2018-12-26 NL,BE (christmas day2)
2019-01-01 (new years day)</verbatim>

---+++++ Important note
   * To use this mechanism there must always be a general *holidays* parameter present. So without a customer ID.
   * A specific parameter *with* a customer ID overrules the general parameter.
   * The general parameter may be empty and specify no holidays at all.
