Holiday Cleardown can be understood as the process of resetting the worker's holiday available units at the end of the holiday year.
Holiday Cleardown is handled automatically in the PurePro application at the end of worker's holiday year. Holiday Year can be defined as a fixed period in the application or as worker's anniversary period, calculated from worker's start date.
Following a Holiday Cleardown, available holidays are either reset to 0 or paid off to the worker, as per the holiday scheme setup.
Holiday Cleardown can be viewed in worker records under Holiday Accruals.

Holiday Scheme Migration
Users have the option to migrate the workers from one holiday scheme to another post holiday cleardown. The process is handled by PurePro after the holiday cleardown and any holidays accrued after migration will be as per the new holiday scheme.
Users can set the holiday schemes to migrate from hourly to hourly or hourly to daily or vice versa, as needed. This is an optional process.
To Setup Holiday Migration, please follow these steps: -
Navigate to Admin → Holiday Scheme
Edit the required holiday scheme
Under "Holiday Scheme" tab select a new holiday scheme to migrate to on worker holiday cleardown
Click "Update"
Workers assigned to this holiday scheme will migrate to new holiday scheme upon cleardown. This process is triggered per worker and does not affect other workers linked to same holiday scheme but have not had holiday cleardown yet.
Holiday accrual and payment will be processed as per the migrated holiday scheme post cleardown.
