    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:

     

     

    If I have misunderstood your query or you require further assistance/ information, please let me know.

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

    To FionaR

     

    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.

      Thanks Ele - I understand about LSL, it was just linking this new Leave Cash Out category to ensure that the correct entitlements are reduced.  Thanks for your examples - I have now set up another category LSL Cash Out and linked it to LSL Entitlement to make sure the LSL Entitlement will be reduced.
