Greetings,

I wanted to test what days are flagged as holidays in DSS and created a very simple dataset with just all days of 2021. When I used "flag holidays" to see the french school and bank holidays, it's false for every days of the year.

Have I done something wrong ?

Regards,

    Hello,

    While I cannot see your step settings, I will assume that you have set the Country code to "FR" which allows DSS to parse the timezone to a readable format.

    However, this issue is actually on our side, as we have not updated the holidays database for Europe for 2021. As you can see from the below image, 2017-2020 has the correct holiday flags but 2021 for FR does not.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention and I will let the team resolve this issue for the next release.
