Leave Recorded in Timesheets Not Adjusting Base Hourly

[BB937]

We pay payroll on an hourly bases, using Standard Pay.  We wish to use the Timesheet function to record leave taken, however when processing payroll, the Base Hourly amount is not adjusted by the leave.  It adds to the value of the Net Pay (ie. Standard Pay hours PLUS the leave taken), as well as leave accruals

The ‘Automatically Adjust Base Hourly or Base Salary Details’ is already ticked on the leave payroll categories.

We also pay casuals – and their hours entered in the Timesheet seems flow through to the payroll processing window fine.

Am I missing some step ?

Hi @BB937 

Sorry to see that no one has offered assistance with your query. The Automatically Adjust Base Hourly or Base Salary Details option is not intended to be used with timesheets, but for employees with set hours worked.

Employees should only be entering time sheets for the day they worked, and entering leave requests for the days they did not work. When doing it this way, there will be a certain amount of hours under base hourly and an amount under annual pay depending on what was approved on the app.

If the system were to be adjusting it, then it would be reducing the hours they actually worked, and cause the employee pay to be incorrect.
