    Hi Jackio

     

    As this employee will have variation in the hours they work, they would need to have at least 1 hour in the Payroll Details >> Wages >> Hours in Weekly Pay Period field as this field cannot be zero. If the employee was going to be doing a minimum number of hours in a week, then that could be entered in this field.

     

    For entitlements, assuming they were going to be calculated based off the number of hours the employee works, such as for every 10 hours they work they get 1 hour of entitlement as an example, then the entitlements associated with the employee will need to be set with a calculation basis of a percentage of… as opposed to a per pay period.
