Hello,
Basic question but when setting up casual employees, do I set up their hourly rate to include the casual loading, ie with a rate of $32.38 rather than the standard rate of $25.90 or does the loading need to be a separate line item and if so, where would this be added?
Hey PDP1,
When setting up casual employees, you'll need to create a separate pay item for the casual loading since it has a different rate. Don't set up the hourly rate to include the casual loading. Here's a link that you can follow for detailed steps when setting up casual loading.
Best regards,
Doreen
the link provided is for leave loading
Is there an update to this for the correct link, not leave loading, but casual loading, in away where you don't have to manually adjust it every pay.
I originally had the casual loading below the line. But the correct way is to set up a standard set of codes for your casuals and full timers. They have different multipliers to get the rates. Then use those codes in your standard pays. Also when you are exporting from somewhere like deputy rostering, your codes are already prepared, as deputy expects the casual rate to be the base rate (ordinary hours).
Could we have the link for casual loading please
Hi Vibe0308,
There’s no exact link for the casual loading setup you’re asking about, but if you’re looking for help with setting up leave or changing employees, the links below should point you in the right direction. However, if you need help with setting up an employee specifically, it’s best to speak directly with a financial advisor so you can get the right advice and make sure everything is reported correctly.
Cheers,
Princess
