Annual Holidays (estimated leave in advance)

We have just been automatically upgraded to the Business payroll system.  I eventually managed to process the latest payroll, emailed the payslips to the staff.   A staff member, who only started ...

Hi Digby, 

 

Thanks for posting in the forum. 

 

I'm sorry to hear about the incorrect values of Annual Leave for one of your employees. Although I could not identify what caused the wrong Annual Leave balance, we could edit these values from the Payroll menu > Employees > click the employee > Leave tab > Annual holidays > Opening leave balance screen. 

 

Also, I would suggest reading through the article Updating leave balances - NZ. This will give you more information on editing the leave values. 

 

If you have any other concerns, feel free to post again on the forum. 

 

Cheers,

Genreve

Hi Genreve

 

 I had also checked the Leave/Annual holidays screen and that is showing a Nil Opening leave balance so there is nothing to adjust. And there is no option to adjust the Estimated leave in advance.

It looks like in the upgrade the system is not caculating leave by usign the employees start date.  It is assuming that all employees have been employed for the full year and they have accrued 3.11 weeks of Annual leave up to the end of September 2023.

 

It is also showing the same exact same amount accrued for an employee who started in May of this year. 

 

Regards

Digby

    Hi Digby, 

     

    Thanks for your response and the screenshots included. 

     

    May I also get a screenshot of the employee start date from the Employment tab of the employee information? 

     

    We look forward to your response.

     

    Cheers,

        Hi Digby, 

         

        Thanks for your response and the screenshot you've attached. 

         

        In my understanding, the balance of the leave that shows is calculated from the start date of the employee to the current date on the computer. May I get a screenshot the whole window of the leave tab of the employee 

         

        We look forward to your response. 

         

        Cheers,
