Question

I have a staff member who seems to exploit sick leave as soon as it becomes available. I have done a search and the advice is to go to categories and untick the "show leave" but this option does not appear ..how can I do this?

Hey @treegirl,

Thanks for the thoughtful post and for digging into your option on how to hide sick leave. The categories/pay items tip is a handy one for some other MYOB products, and because you’re on MYOB Business NZ the equivalent setting sits in Payroll settings instead. To hide sick leave,

* Click the gear icon in the top-right next to your business name
* Choose Payroll settings, then untick “Show sick leave balance on pay slips” and save.

That will hide the sick leave balance on all future pay slips for everyone in the file. In MYOB Business NZ, it’s an optional, global toggle rather than something you switch per pay item, which is why those options didn’t show up for you this time.

Cheers,

Doreen

Hi, I have neither pay items nor categories available to me as they do not appear as an option...

Hi @treegirl - thanks for your question.

If you're using MYOB Business (on a web browser), go to Payroll > Pay items > Leave tab then open the leave pay item. You can now deselect the option Show leave balance on pay slip.

If you're using AccountRight desktop software, go to the Payroll command centre > Payroll Categories > Entitlements tab. Open the leave category then deselect the option Show leave balance on pay slips.

I hope this helps!
