Hi all,
We would like to improve the current Holidays implementation. There are 2 issues that we would like to hear your opinion on what is the expected behaivior.

  1. On an empty calendar (no appoinments) the holidays are imported. What should happen when adding a recurrent appointment on weekdays.
    *The function should skip a day marked as Holiday (like if it were a weekend)?

  2. On an already filled calendar, a user wants to import holidays. When a Holiday finds that an appointment already exists in that date, what should be done with that appointment ?

Thanks for your feedback !

Before making an appointment I think it is more usable if there is a remark like: “Today is a special day” A holliday! Holliday/Birthdya of/ALERT etc. Evan tomorrow is the birthday of my friend would be nice.

For what it is worth, a thought after having added above options for Agenda, there are many doctors that have to work with appointments during holidays, weekends and special days… day and or night.
