Annual leave in Payroll window not allowing correct information

HI   I am disappointed that there doesn't seem to be an option in the Process payroll window to select the dates that an employee is away (in the Leave window). There is only the option to put star...

    Hi Shezamac 

     

    You need to add the notes section to the Entitlement balance detail report in the Insert/Modify tab>>Show Hide>>highlight Notes and click Show and Ok:

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    This is not a field that you can add to pay slips.

     

    Please don't hesitate to post again if you need help in the future.

Hi Shezamac 

 

In Process Payroll you can track leave dates by clicking on the zoom arrow next to the leave wage category. This opens the Leave Tracking Information window where you can enter the dates and other relevant information. These dates will appear on the Reports>>Payroll>>Entitlement>>Entitlement Balance [Detail] showing what dates the leave was actually taken.

 

 

If you don't see the zoom arrow, it is due to the fact that you don't have a linked wages category for the entitlement. You would need to set this up via Payroll>>Payroll Categories>>Select the Entitlement tab>>Select the relevant entitlment and set a Linked Wages category. This is the category that you would use to reduce the entitlement for example Holiday Pay to reduce the Holiday annual leave.

 

Please let me know if you need further help.

    Hi Tracey

     

    No, that's not what I mean.

     

    I have that window, but you can only put date from and to in there.

     

    I often have staff who take a Monday, then a Thursday, then the following Tuesday in any given fortnight, and I am unable to put this information in properly

      Hi Shezamac 

       

      If employees are not taking consecutive days leave you could enter the separate dates in the notes section.

       

      Please let me know if you need further help.

        That's what I do, but where does that appear on their payslip, or our reports?


        Thank you
