It's currently not supported in Forms. We will consider it for future release.

I believe that the feature should exist in two options:

 

- Global to form

- also, possible to define holidays by business process

Hi, we have supported configuring holiday calendars on Forms 12.

You can see other changes from: Laserfiche 12 Changelog

Hi there-

The WORKDAY() function doesn't seem to honor the holidays I've defined in version 12. Am I missing something?

Hi Pieter,

Field formulas only recognize variables within the form (such as date fields) and do not automatically read system-level holiday settings.

Holidays you set in the system are primarily used for process activities (e.g., user task due date, timer event) to exclude weekends and holidays during calculations, not for form field formulas.

This limitation is by design, so you’re not missing anything. If holiday support in field formulas is critical for your process, I’d suggest custom JavaScript or rules to adjust the calculated date.

Thank you-

I will say that this is a bit confusing and unintuitive since there is now configuration for holidays. My guess is that these calculations come from a 3rd party library that you guys don't have control over, but from a user perspective it is very unintuitive. Maybe if the function was called WEEKDAYS instead of WORKDAYS.

I'd like to ask for an enhancement request on this to include those holiday definitions in the workday calculation. Though I realize there may not be too many people that would use it.
