Car Allowance

I have created a car allowance and excluded SGC calculating on it, via Super and exemptions.

 

BUT it's calculating annual leave accrual, and adding to YTD.

How do it stop annual leave accrual adding for a car allowance payment?

    Amanda,

    Thanks.

    That looks like desktop.

    My client is using On-Line and those labels don't appear.

    A colleague of yours - Marc said we have to delete the values on the annual leave accrual label to prevent it accruing while a car allowance is paid. That works so you can mark it complete or solved

    Hi DavidCM

     

    That car allowance certainly throws off your leave accrual if not set right. Luckily you can do a few tweaks to avoid it from accruing leave. You can Go to Payroll > Pay items > Leave, open Annual leave, open Exemptions, add the Car Allowance pay item, then Save. This should fix the incorrect calculations.

    Thanks.

    However I cannot see Exemptions in the Leave items, Annual Leave or Annual Leave Accrual - (Like I did in Superannuation)

    Still waiting for a solution so can’t mark it as completed 

  • Hey DavidCM​ 

    To stop annual leave accruing for a car allowance payment in MYOB AccountRight, you'll need to click into the pay item and select the 'Exempt' button on the top right. Screenshot below for your reference: 

    More information and step by step instructions can be found on this page! Hope this helps.

    Hey DavidCM​ 

    Appreciate the update. The instructions for the browser version can be found in the same link I shared earlier, just select the 'Browser' option at the top of the page. 

    To add an exemption in the browser, you'll want to click into the pay item itself and you'll have the option to add the relevant leave exemptions. I've attached a screenshot below for your reference. Here is the link to the step by step instructions as well!
