Leave types are assignment types that are not projects. Common examples are vacation and sick time. You can also use leave types to indicate other non-project work, such as business development. Leave assignments appear on the schedule in orange.
Resourcing Administrators can configure leave types and official holidays.

Add leave assignments the same way you would add project assignments.

Non-working days and official holidays
You can indicate days of the year that your entire organization does not work. Resource Management excludes non-working days (official holidays and weekends) from your project budget by default. No time sheet suggestions appear for non-working days.
Non-working days appear on the Schedule as light gray vertical bands, which show how project timelines overlap with weekends or holidays.
