Free / Restricted Days Update - Bulk Add

free_restricted_days_bulk_add.jpgInstead of having to enter all your Free/Restricted days by individual departments, an update to this area now means you can select multiple departments to add a new Free/Restricted day for.

This doesn't mean that one request covers multiple departments, the system will generate one day per the departments you have selected, just a minor update to help those with departments located around the world.
