Company Holiday in Teams

Question

Company Holiday in Teams

Susan Hausman 6

I have added the Company holiday in Teams and they are not showing on the calendar. We do not use auto attendant and I did set it up to see if that works and still not showing on calendar. What do I need to do to make the company holidays We added show up on the Teams calendar?

I did setup auto attendant still nothing as our phone systems have no use for it. Even with auto attendant setup they are still not show. Do I need to make a resource account?

Hi @Susan Hausman

How did you add the company holiday to Teams calendar?

Can you see the company holiday in your outlook calendar?

I did a test in my environment and you can try to follow these tips to see if it works for you:

1.Sign in outlook client and make sure your account is the same as Teams client.

2.Click Calendar and create a new appointment to your Teams calendar.

3.In subject, type a name for the important date, check All day and enter a date.

4.Go to Recurrence and click Yearly, then select OK.

5.Wair for a few minutes and you will find the custom holiday sync to Teams calendar.

I added the company holidays in teams admin like it states and it is not showing

In the Microsoft Teams admin center, go to Org-wide settings > Holidays.

Select New holiday.

Enter a name for the holiday.

Select Add new date.

Under Start time, select the calendar icon and choose the date when you'd like the holiday to begin.

Use the drop-down list to select a start time for the holiday.

Under End time, select the calendar icon and choose the date when you'd like the holiday to end.

Use the drop-down list to select an end time for the holiday. The End time must be after the Start time.

It needs auto attendants if you want to set the holiday by this way.

Yes, you need a resource account for auto attendant.

We do not use auto attendant which makes this useless. I did add it to test with resource account but the holidays did not show. Hopefully in future Microsoft will add this with out using auto attendant.
