Common mistakes
- Adding three monthly rows from different calendars.
- Treating quarter totals as payroll-ready without employer rules.
- Ignoring year-end closures that are not public holidays.
Quarter release window
A Q4 release has support coverage requirements.
Use the Q4 row for the target calendar, then subtract internal freeze days.
Company freeze days are not included unless they match a listed public holiday.
