Annual and Personal Leave not accruing - base salary

Question

Hi&nbsp;We have two entities in MYOB, both of which are not accruing leave for employees who are on a base salary. It is calculating leave for those who are on an hourly basis.&nbsp;I have double checked the payroll categories and the entitlements have been allocated to accrue leave on GROSS WAGES.&nbsp;Please let us know how this issue can be fixed.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks&nbsp;

Hi Lisa,&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks for getting back to us.&nbsp;&nbsp;Screenshots attached.&nbsp;&nbsp;I have reviewed the exemptions and the employees. Nothing out of the ordinary.It is odd that this same error has occured in two different entities so two different myob files.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Thanks for the screen shots.One comment - the percentage rates on personal leave should be the same for each , just as annual leave is the same .3.84615% is the correct rate&nbsp;Everything looks ok to me in these cards so I suggest that you look at the employee cards and check that the entitlements are correctly selected in each employee ( payroll details - entitlements tab )&nbsp;The standard pay tab will also show what has been set up regarding accruals&nbsp;Hope that is useful&nbsp;Lisa

Hi&nbsp;Marina9&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Having a look at your set up you've got leave accruing at a % of Gross Hours. Salary employees are not paid in hours&nbsp;therefore having the calculation basis to be % of Gross Hours will be zero. You will need to create a new entitlement payroll category for salary employees with the calculation fixed rate per period.

Hi Tracey,&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you for your reply on this matter. I understand the % issue. What puzzles is me we have not changed/amended any entitlement information.&nbsp; We have never had this issue before, and staff have been accuring leave in the correct way.How is it possible for a system to change without any manual update?&nbsp;Please note that this has happened for 2 seperate myob files.&nbsp;&nbsp;
