For each holiday calendar, you must specify:
1. The name of the holiday calendar, which will be displayed when assigning calendars to users
2. The name and dates of holidays that occur in the calendar
3. The icon to display for the holiday in the users timesheets and calendars
Customizing the List of Holiday Icons
Web TimeSheet provides a large number of holiday icons; however you may add more icons if you are using
the self-hosted version of Web TimeSheet. Icons cannot be added if you are using the Replicon-hosted/
SaaS version of Web TimeSheet.
To add icons:
1. Go to the folder where you installed Web TimeSheet on your server.
2. Place the icon files in the html\common\icons\holidays folder.
3. Restart the Web TimeSheet service to see your new icons available when adding or editing holi-
days.
Setting Up Currencies
Web TimeSheet provides support for multiple currencies. Items such as expenses, payroll rates, hourly
costs, and billing rates all have a currency associated with them.
USD is the default currency and acts as the base for the exchange rates of additional currencies defined in
the system; however you can choose any currency to be the default. To assist with accounting tasks, reports
can be configured to show data in both the original currency and the base currency.
Currencies can be defined at:
Administration > System > Currencies
When adding or editing a currency, you must specify:
1. The name of the currency
2. The symbol, to be shown with currency values. The symbol can be an actual symbol ($) and/or an
abbreviation (CAD).
3. The rate of exchange between the new currency and your base currency
If the exchange rate changes in the future, you can add a new exchange rate and set it to be effective the
date of the change.
Holiday icons must be .gif or .jpg images, and no larger than 16 by 16 pixels.
If you are using Web TimeSheet for Oracle, currency symbols such as £ are not recognized
by Oracle due to a difference in character representation. For these currencies, it is recom-
mended that you use an alphabetical abbreviation (e.g., EUR).
It is recommended that you create a process for handling manual exchange rate updates, because
Replicon does not connect to an external currency system to obtain updates.
