Entering 9 Day Fortnight into MYOB - Employee is paid weekly

robyno8888

Hi,

We have 1 x Full Time Worker that has requested to work a 9 Day Fortnight - I've tried some suggestions from other posts but still can't work it out. Hoping someone can assist.

He's paid WEEKLY.
However, he wishes to work—76 Hours Per Fortnight (worked over 9 Days)

Monday to Friday 8.00am—5.00pm with an unpaid meal break of .5 hours per day.

9 hours less .5 hours = 8.5 hrs per day x 9 days = 76.5 hours per fortnight

He will finish work at 4.30pm to reduce his working hours to 76 Hrs—Friday 9/2/2024 (then Friday fortnightly) - (Day 7)

Rostered Day Off—Wednesday 14/02/2024 (then Wednesday fortnightly) - (Day 10)

Pay Week is now Thursday to Wednesday.

I created a "Wage Catergory" for this to trial the calculations.

It seemed to affect the accruals for Annual Leave, Long Service Leave & Personal Leave.

If I use "Entitlements" I'm not sure how to calculate the time worked to accrue the fortnightly entitlement.

I hope I've explained my situation and someone can help me please. I need to process our pays today and only discovered this dilemma last night.

Many Thanks

Robyn

Hi Doreen,

Thank you for replying.

I think I have managed to sort it out.

I created a new Payroll Catergory - 9 Day F/N Wednesday Day Off = $0.00 (Fixed Hourly Rate)

Our business hours are 8.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday with an unpaid meal break .5 Hour = 42.5 Hrs

Our staff member is now working 38 Hours over 9 Days.

Fortnightly he will finish at 4.30pm Friday (1st Early Finish -Friday 9/2/2024) and take a permanent RDO fortnightly (1st RDO Wednesday 14/2/2024).

When I set up the Payroll Category - I selected the "Exempt" Tab and ticked Holiday Leave Accrual, Long Service Leave and Sick Leave Accrual. The entitlements are not changing when I enter the 8.5 Hours for his Rostered Day Off.

As we're paying him weekly (not fortnightly) I have set it up as follows from a post I read by another MYOB Moderator.

Week 1 - Thursday 1/2/2024 to Wednesday 7/2/2024 = 42.5 Base Hourly

Week 2 - Thursday 8/2/2024 to Wednesday 14/2/2024 = 33.5 Base Hourly + 8.5 Hours @ $0.00 (RDO)

After working through these calculations to run last weeks payrun I couldn't see the need to set the RDO up as an ACCRUAL I just want to show the RDO Hours on his pay slip. His RDO is locked into our roster permanently.

If you have a moment to comment - I'd appreciate your feedback.

Many Thanks again.
