Adjusting annual leave to sick leave

AmyR01

How do I reverse leave that was incorrectly paid as annual leave when it should have been sick leave? MYOB Essentials won't let me enter a negative in annual leave.

Thank you!

Hi @AmyR01

Why don't you just make an adjustment to the employee leave balance in the employee details - add back to the annual leave using the opening balance, and reduce the sick leave balance.

Hi Isaiah,

Any more help you can provide on my reply 7 days ago?

Thank you.

Hello Isaiah,

We are unable to delete the employee from the original payrun as the pay has been processed. Please see screenshot below. Is there another way to do this, please?

Thanks!

Hi @AmyR01

Don't forget to break the payday filing while you do this, or the second run will lodge to the IRD again.

Hi @AmyR01,

The easiest way to reverse leave that was paid incorrectly as annual leave instead of sick leave is actually not through the leave tab (since it doesn't allow negatives). Here's what you can do instead:

Go to Payroll > Payruns
Open the original payrun and remove the employee from it
Then, create a new payrun and tick only that employee
This time, enter the same pay details but use sick leave instead of annual leave

Once the original pay is deleted, their annual leave balance will automatically adjust in the background. If it helps, you can print their original payslip first, so you've got a guide for gross pay and other pay items.

Regards,

Sai
