You also can use the check boxes Select all / Unselect all to check or uncheck all holidays in the list in one step.
Finally you can press + Add Selected to add the selected holidays to the holiday profile.
Country-specific holidays
Holidays are grouped in holiday profiles which can be set in the advanced options of a routing plan. It is helpful to use different holiday profiles, if you own geographical phone numbers of different countries. As in every country public holidays are different, you can add a holiday profile per country and configure it appropriate in the advanced routing plan options.

Example
For instance you own a geographical phone number from Germany and an other one from France. You can configure a German holiday profile including all public holidays from Germany and one for France including all public holidays of France. In the Routing for the German number you can set the German holiday profile and in the one for the French number you set the French holiday profile. For example the German Unity day is only a public holiday in Germany, which means in this constellation that for the German number the holiday routing, but for the french number the standard routing is active.
Customer-specific holidays
In addition, you can define custom holidays. Those can also be added to holiday profiles, when you select the list Custom Holidays:
