Over the almost 4 years that this thread has existed it seems to still float to the top every so often.
MYOB does not have facility to automatically accrue any leave, it is a deliberate action of setting up the leave correctly then ticking a particular staff member for a given leave. LSL does not exist in the same way that 5 weeks annual leave does not exist, yet people who want make sure that their shift workers who are entitled to 5 weeks leave, get it.
LSL does have another complication, the rules for accumulation and taking of LSL are different in every state. The starting point should be your state based Industrial Relation body, in Victoria it is Business Victoria. If you are familiar with the backroom of MYOB it is a straight forward matter to create the LSL and, if necessary, update the accrual to match previously held numbers
