Payroll & Leave entitlement

Sorry a bit long... so I’ve been roped in to help with wages/payroll as or old bookkeeper has retired.

I’m not really a payroll person, because it baffles me 

Anyhow, the ‘inherited’ system needs updating/fine tuning as everybody would like their annual leave etc to be shown on the payslip.

Leave entitlements currently are calculated on a separate spreadsheet and not included on payslips because previously unable to get MYOB to display the correct entitlement due.

I’ve worked out that they had all hours selected, which falsely includes overtime.

I’ve found the area where I can select ‘base hours’ however I also need to allow for public holidays etc. I know there is another area but so far haven’t found it 

I’ve worked out how to include entitlements on the payslip.

However, my main question isn’t actually quite MYOB related but calculation related: the tracking spreadsheet uses formula e.g. “number of days /48*4/12*(# of months captured”)? I have no idea if this is correct… any insights?

I want to make sure I enter the correct new starting numbers in MYOB so we can retire the spreadsheets.

We are on hourly rates with weekly paychecks, with most of us on part-time except for one member who is full time. We get paid our lunch break so function on a 9h day.

The last thing that I’ll have to look is emailing payslips. Emails are in the system and employees set to ‘email payslip’ but they’re not being received. Guessing I have to work out how to configure the 'mail server'?
