HosPortal automatically adds proclaimed public holidays in each state. If you want to add additional days that behave like holidays, such as shut-down days, then you can add a 'site holiday'. You can also remove them.

Edit a holiday
The new holiday will be added with the tag "SITE" to denote that it is a site specific holiday, that is it is applicable only for your account;
Click here to edit or delete the holiday that has been added;
NOTES:
Holidays affect all roster groups. It is not possible to create a holiday that affects only one roster group, such as clinical allocations, and not others, such as on-call shifts;
You can only change the holiday status of a day if there are no shifts on that day, in any roster group. So if you have any shifts in published or draft state you first need to delete them;
Once you have changed the holiday status you can then draft and publish your shifts from templates;
If you want to add a shift that does not adopt the standard holiday setting (e.g. add a shift on a holiday using the normal shift timing, or use holiday timing for a shift on a normal weekday) you will need to add it as an ad hoc shift: it cannot be created from the templates;
