    Hi LidiaP 

     

    Apologies for not making my previous response clearer. AccountRight 2019 works on the principle that the entitlement category will appear on payslips if the entitlement has been used i.e. had a value accrue for the current payroll year. When an employee is paid LSL, the amount is recorded against the wage payroll category but for the entitlement to appear on payslips the entitlement category needs to have a value against it. Recording a pay with a value against the entitlement category, then reversing that pay will show the entitlement balance on payslips.
     
    Based on my review of the documentation you have provided and additional documentation from other sources there is no required provision to have that information available on the payslips. it merely does need to be provided should the employee request that information.
     
    Please let me know if you need further help.

Hi LidiaP 

 

Thanks for your post and for providing so much information. Can I check that if you go into Setup>>Preferences>>Reports and Forms tab>>Include all YTD amounts and entitlement balances on paycheque stubs has been ticked. 

 

Please let me know if this resolves your issue.

      Hi LidiaP 

       

      Can I please clarify if the employee has taken LSL in this financial year?  If not, the accrual won't appear on the payslip until the entitlement is paid through Process Payroll. This is the same for all entitlements, they don't appear on payslips until they are paid through Process Payroll in the current payroll year.

       

      If the employee hasn't taken LSL you can record a pay for 1 hour LSL, zeroing out all other amounts and hours, then reverse that pay. This will create a record of LSL being used in Process Payroll so the entitlment will appear on payslips.

       

      Please let me know how you go with this.

        Hi Tracey,

        Yes, 2 employees have taken LSL this financial year (via the linled wage account). The LSL entitlement balance doesn't shown on their payslip.

         

        On the other hand: Due to legislation changes in LSL-Victoria, this entitlement balance has to be provided to the employee regardless if it was taken or not.

        I undertand that for the time being the LSL will not be available on payslips.

        I woul appreciate if MYOB could fix this ASAP so we can comply with the current LSL legislation.

        Thank you
