Part Time Employees - Leave Requests (Employment Hero Synced)

I was wondering if anyone might have a solution?

 

We currently run MYOB AccountRight and have this system synced up to Employment Hero. In Employment Hero we currently submit leave requests and staff can also view their balance.

 

When staff submit a leave request in Employment Hero & it is approved, it automatically comes into MYOB as a timesheet for that selected date. When we then run our normal pay run, this is in the initial screen and all other timesheet entries & the leave is listed again on the second screen under than employees pay run information.

 

The issue we are having for part-time employees is the leave taken does not deduct this from the accrued leave balance automatically (despite the pay item being selected to do this).

 

Our part time employees are currently allocated a Base Hourly pay item and than have Annual Leave - Hourly Pay and similar for other leave types (e.g. Sick Leave).

 

This does work fine for our fulltime employees. It is only the part-time employees that we are running into this issue with.

 

Any advice is appreciated.

    Hi Cassie_D,

     

    I can see what's going on there. This usually comes down to the setup rather than the sync itself. You'll want to double check the pay item and leave (entitlement) setup for those part-time employees. The leave balance and the leave payment need to be properly linked for it to deduct correctly.

     

    Also worth keeping in mind:

    • If the employee is hourly, their leave accrual is typically based on percentage of hours worked
    • If they're salaried, it's usually set as a fixed accrual per pay period

    So if the setup doesn't match how they're paid, it can stop the leave from reducing properly when it comes through. I'd recommend giving the setup a quick once-over here: Leave and entitlements.

     

    Regards,

    Sai
