It would be great to have long service accrual recorded similar to annual leave. This not only useful for employee but essential for employers. It is available on AccountRight why not make it available here. I feel like I'm going backwards in giving my employees information they need. Please make this a priority on Essentials. Can't be too hard. Cheers
Payroll: Long Service Leave Accrual

If MYOB Essentials can accrue for Annual and Personal Leave, why can it not accrue for Long Service Leave? Long term casuals and permanent part time employees are entitled to long service leave these days. It is not unusual for a company with just one employee to have that worker with them for 10 years and be entitled to long service leave. As LSL rules differ from state to state, could you not have a drop down to choose the particular state and the appropriate % for pay period accruals. You can do this in more expensive versions of MYOB.

I just converted a Client from Accountright 2018.4 to Essentials and I am disturbed to find that it does not track long servicve leave accrual for Employees. Essentials is such a user friendly product and I don't understand why when it can track sick and annual leave that it is not able to do LSL. I had no idea this would be an issue. I hope this is in an update coming soon.

I could not agree more. It is not satisfactory to have a payroll system that does not cover all of an employers obligations.
Please consider an update to the software ASAP !!!!!
Hi
How do you record your employees or keep track of LSL ?
This is a standard feature of payroll ?

Totally agree... have just made the switch to Essentials from Account Right and are finding quite a few things that were necessary standard features for our business no longer available to me with Essentials.... Not very happy!!

Cmon Myob - this should be a no brainer.
Long Service Leave is critical to any accounting system.
This should be an absolute priority.

Thank you for your post, tkal.
We understand you would like to be able to track Long Service Leave in Essentials. As mentioned this request has been passed on to our product development team.
The recent separation of Payroll in Essentials will enable us to incorporate further functionalities within Payroll. We will keep you posted.
We appreciate your patience in the meantime.
Regards,

Tracking LSL is Essential - a statutory requirement - so MYOB Essentials is lacking.
Not to even have the ability to enter a pay category once for all employees - very poor.
