final pay slip to include base hourly plus unused leave

How do i pay an employee their final leave of pay plus their unused leave entitlements in one pay slip

because as if i pay the regular base hourly, that will accrue leave and therefore the unused leave entitlement would not be correct. do i just manually add in the accrued leave into their base hourly?

Note: i am following this method for final pay

Hey finance12,

When paying an employee their last regular pay, we recommend processing it separately to ensure the employee's leave balance is updated correctly and PAYG tax is calculated on the entire unused leave payment. However, if you prefer to process the final pay together with the unused leave, you can manually edit the unused leave hours during the pay process.

Best regards,

Doreen

  Yes that makes sense! In my case, is it possible to process the unused leave payment plus the 4 weeks notice of leave payment in the same pay slip. Is this the ETP method or payment of regular pay method?

    Hi finance12,
    
    Yes, that's an option. ETP pay and regular pay usually follow the same steps, but ETP focuses more on termination.
