I also would like to see the automatic function removed.
We use timesheets. I employ multiple bookkeepers. Every time I have a new bookkeeper learning to process wages in AccountRight, and a new employee card file is created they invaribly fail to go to 'Standard pay' section and '0' the automatic hours. (Yes I coach them to look out for this!) This results in the new employee bieng 76 hours overpaid. It has happened with multiple bookkeepers over many years.
It also happens each time a cardfile wage rates are modified, (eg annual payrises). It is all very well to tell bookkeepers they need to always remember to go in to standard pay and '0' each time. However it reality it does get missed and on several occasions has resulted in employees being overpaid 76 hours. Nothing worse that trying to recoup overpaid wages. More frustrating when the bookkeepers have not made a mistake as such, rather, the problem is create by MYOB automatic updating of standard pay.
Even if the error is picked up before wages are paid to the bank, deleting an electronic payment through bank register; reversing the pay (essential due to STP); amending the card file; reprocessing the wage; reprocessing the electronic payment to get an .ABA bank file is time consuming. All this could be avoided if there was no automatic population in the standard hours section.
I and our bookkeepers will be very happy when this automatic function is removed. (praying hands)
