Employee changing from full time to casual employment - clearing leave entitlement balances

Hi

I have a full time employee who left and will be coming back to work on a casual basis. All leave entitlements were paid out using the Unused Annual leave category set up under wages. This does not clear the leave entitlement balance unless I put in their termination date. Am I better off starting a new employee card for when they start as casual, or is there a way to clear the leave entitlement balance without putting in a termination date.

 

Thank you for your help

  • Hi KLS14,

     

    Thank you for your post. 

     

    If you have not yet entered a termination date, you could enter a leave adjustment for this employee so that the YTD balances are 0. You can then 'untick' the accrual leave items so that leave no longer accrues. 

     

    Alternatively, you could start a new card file, however, this could result in 2 STP payment summaries for this employee come EOFY.

     

    If you would like further assistance on how to do the adjustment, etc, please do let me know!

      Hi Sam

       

      Thank you for your suggestion. I ended up doing a $0 pay run and adjusted leave balance by putting in a negative number for annual leave hours to bring it back to zero. 

       

      Now I can use the employee card and untick the accrual leave items.

       

      Thanks for your help
