MYOB Teams Leave request incorrect hours

We have a roster in that is 8 hours a day (40 hour week).

Worker has put in a request for a day of leave and it shows 7h 36m.

I cannot see how the worker can change this to 8 hours and I cannot change it to 8 hours when approving.

Any ideas on how MYOB teams can match the correct hours of leave?

    Hi Max8,

     

    The reason you're seeing 7h 36m instead of 8 hours is due to the inclusion of the employee's break time in the calculation. In MYOB Teams, breaks are automatically deducted from the total work hours, which is why the leave request reflects slightly less than the full 8 hours.

     

    This is the default behavior in MYOB Teams to account for the scheduled break, and it can't be modified directly. The system automatically calculates the break based on the rostered hours, which is why you're seeing the 7h 36m for a full day.

     

    Regards,

    Sai

      Why does MYOB have a rostering and timesheet application that can manage 8 hour days etc. but the worker cannot apply for a 8 hour annual leave day.

       

      This is basic stuff. If this is really the case then MYOB should state on their MYOB Teams page that it really is only a half baked free program - you can roster a worker for 8 hours a day and they can submit a timesheet for 8 hours a day but NO you cannot submit an 8 hour annual leave day request!

       

      So I now have a second employer who said they will not bother using Teams if it cannot apply the correct leave information - sigh!
