3557827 - Absence on holiday is not created when creating recurring absence

Configured leave requests for holidays through the Absence Counting Configuration with the following setup:

• Requesting on Non-Working Days Allowed: Yes
• Duration Display According To: Deduction Quantity
• Absence Counting Configuration includes: Include Holidays

However, when creating a recurring absence, no absence is generated for the holiday. For example, if a weekly recurring absence is created from Dec 18 to Jan 1 (with Dec 25 being a holiday), absences are generated for Dec 18 and Jan 1, but not for Dec 25.

1. Go to Time off.
2. Click on Create Absence.
3. Select the time type and start date as Dec 18th 2024.
4. Select recurring absence with reoccurs weekly & end date Jan 8th 2025.
5. 25th Dec is a holiday. But the absence is not created on this date even though its configured to create.

• Currently it is working as per the system design.
• With the existing system design, non-working days are filtered out for recurring absence creation. That applies to full holidays in the same way as for non-working days based on the work schedule definition. 

• Kindly create an enhancement request for full day absence creation with frequency weekly or biweekly. You can refer the KBA on creating enhancement request:2090228 - How to Submit Enhancement Requests for SAP SuccessFactors Products 
• As a workaround, absences for holidays need to be created separately.
