Hi Ele,

Thank you for your post.

An entitlement category can have more than one linked wages category that reduces the accrued hours. I will attach a screenshot below for you:

This setting allows you to process a pay run with more than 1 wage category that reduces your entitlement accrual, for example:

  Does this also apply when cashing out Long Service Leave using the new Leave Cash Out category?

    As long service leave is a separate type of leave to (annual leave, parental leave etc) and has its own rules (available on government web sites).
    Under the 2 awards that cover our business LSL is due at 10, 15, 20, years.
    And under those awards it does not accumulate but falls due on a date.
    So I have raised
    Wages Category
    16 @ 10 yrs used Long Serv Lea
    17 @ 10 yrs Cash out LSL
    18 @ 15 yrs used Long Serv Leav
    19 @ 15 yrs Cash out LSL
    20 @ 20 yrs used Long Serv Leav
    21 @ 20 yrs Cash out LSL
    (the numbers in the front are so that they appear in the correct order on the screen)
    Entitlements Category
    0 @ 10 years Long Service Leave
    0 @ 15 years Long Service Leave
    0 @ 20 years Long Service Leave
    (the zero in the front is so that they appear at the top of the choices)
    
    When someone hits their anniversary, I go in and tick their name on the relevant choice
    eg John Smith hits his 10 years service, I go in and tick his name on the ones relevant for 10 years.
    
    Then when he gives me the holiday request form I use the 'used' if he has asked for time off, and the 'cash out' if he just wants money.
    
    That way I dont have to remember anything, it is all down in stone. Hope this helps.
