Unused Annual Leave & Unused Long Service Leave

Hi All,

 

I have Unused Annual Leave and Unused Long Service leave payroll categories under my wages section in an employee I am setting up.

 

Can you please tell me what these are for?

 

Thankyou

    Hi Eden1306

     

    I get how clarifications are needed for these leave categories. Those two lines are just the employee’s accrued leave being cashed out when they finish up:

    • Unused annual leave – all the annual leave hours they’ve built up and haven’t taken yet, paid out in their final pay (often with leave loading if they normally get it).
    • Unused long service leave – any long service leave they’re entitled to but haven’t taken, also paid out in that final pay.

    So they’re not extra or new amounts, just the existing leave balances being paid in dollars instead of time off. If you want to know more about how the software handles leave, you can read through the article "Leave and Entitlements".
