Since switching over to STP Phase 2; when staff take annual leave or personal leave, they do not accrue any leave entitlements. In the payroll category list > Wages > Annual leave and personal leave is now OTHER PAID LEAVE.But in the payroll category list > Entitlements > Annual Leave Pay and Sick Leave Pay BOTH accrue Percent of GROSS HOURS only. I now need the annual leave entitlement to calculate 7.6923% on the percentage of GROSS WAGES AND OTHER PAID LEAVE. How do I set up the entitlements to accrue not only on gross wages but on other paid paid leave? Many Thanks.

Spoke to MYOB support, and this is now resolved by setting annual leave and personal leave up as GROSS PAYMENTS and not OTHER PAID LEAVE.

Hi @lisamcc,

The leave might not be accruing because it is part of the exemptions. You can remove the exemptions from the pay item options. I recommend referring to the "Creating a Leave Pay Item for Accruing Leave" section of this link for more information.

  Hi Genreve,
  
  Thank you for your reply. I've checked, and it's not listed in the exemptions.
  
  Following on from the link you've provided, "Select the pay item to base the calculation on from the Percent of selection list. We suggest you select the Gross Hours option and then use the Exemptions below to choose the pay items you don’t want the entitlement to accrue on". I have previously done this, however I need it to accrue on GROSS HOURS AND OTHER PAID LEAVE.
  
  Any idea on how to incorporate both?
