Superannuation not calculating on Annual Leave for Salary Staff
I have changed our company accounts to MYOB Accountright Live for the 2019 finanacial year. I setup the Payroll categories including superannuation exactly the same as they were in my Accountright Enterprise file. I have just noticed that superannuation has not been calculating correctly for salary staff when they take annual leave or sick leave. Basically superannuation is not being calculated for salary staff on any leave. I have included screen shots below to explain. I have checked the exemptions and I have no exemptions ticked. It is the same for staff on different funds as well. This did not happen in Accountright Enterprise. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.Solved2KViews0likes5CommentsAnnual Leave and Loading double dipping entitlements
Hi all When I enter a pay run that includes annual leave and leave loading, the two entitlements are both taking out of the entitlement amount listed on the employee card. For example, if I check an employee's leave entitlement and it says 150 hours and I take out 30 hours of leave + 30 hours of leave loading (accruing at 17.5%) it calculates the correct $ amount, but then if I go back in to the employee card and check the entitlements it has deducted 60 hours from the annual leave and now showing only 90 hours of annual leave remaining. I'm not sure what I've set up incorrectly in the back end. When I look through the help section of how to set both of those up, my setup appears to match that, but this can't be right, can it? Can anyone please help? Thanks KarenSolved1.4KViews0likes7CommentsEmployee often works more than 40 hours - leave entitlement
Hi, I'm using Ace Payroll. I have an employee and contract states that the hours will be 40 hours but will need to work more hours when requested. They often work more than a 40 hour week. When setting up their employee details I ticked the "works irregular hours" option since they often work more than an 8 hour day. Is this correct or should I enter in Mon to Fri as 8 hours each day and will Ace Payroll calculate at what rate to pay the annual leave eg more than say 8 hours at $20 per hour or will it just calculate based on a standard 8 hours? Hopefully this makes sense. ThanksSolved1KViews0likes2CommentsOverpayment of Annual Leave
Hi everyone, first time I have messaged on this forum:smileyhappy: Originally this began with trying to account for annual leave provision and I changed the payroll category, thinking this would be the right way to handle. I realised a few weeks later that it didn't seem to be working the way that I wanted it to so I have changed the payroll category back and will do a GL journal adjustment at the end of each month. I have now discovered that as a result of this change, some of our salaried staff have been overpaid as it added on Annual Leave on top of base salary rather than adjusting. Can anyone advise the best way to fix this? My manager suggested that I adjust the annual leave owing rather than deducting amounts from pay if all staff are happy to do this. Many thanksSolved1KViews0likes2CommentsIncorrect value for gross earnings
I have a final pay at 30/06/2022 and therefore a calculation of the value of annual leave to process for 7 employees. This requires two steps. 1) Leave entitlement in hours is paid at the higher of ordinary weekly pay or average weekly earnings. and, 2) Eight % of the gross earnings since the most recent increment of the leave entitlement was recognised on the employees anniversary date. We are on a monthly pay run. I have an anniversary date of 3/08/2021 and a termination date of 30/06/2022. I calculate the gross "earnings prior to current pay run" as as 49,583.20 the sum of the monthly pays (4,583.33 4,583.33 4,583.33 4,583.33 5,208.31 5,208.28 5,208.33 5,208.33 5,208.30 5,208.33) from 31/08/2021 to 31/05/2021. Add June pay 5208.30 we get 54,791.53 which is multiplied by 8%. MYOB Essential payroll gives me 44,374.87 "earnings prior to current pay run" which is the pays from 31/08/2021 to 30/04/2022. So that value is too low by one month's gross pay which I assume is the 31 May 2022 pay of 5,208.33. 44,374.87 and add current month June pay 5,208.33 equals 49,583.20 which is multiplied by 8%. Which calculation is correct? And why? Thanks you!853Views0likes1CommentHourly Rate for Annual Leave
Hello - i've been using essientals for a year now. Really miss not having a support person to contact. When calculating AL should an addition such as rent boost up the hourly rate when on annual leave? The employee doesn't actually pay rent as its a deduction as well so nets itself off but they are taxed on the amount. Thansk in advance for your help.685Views0likes1CommentAnnual leave calculations
Has the upgraded version changed the way it calculates annual leave? One employee says she didn't accrue estimated annual leave between the old and upgraded system? Also, for a staff member's final pay, are they entitled to the estimated balance of annual leave as well as the current balance? Thank you.Solved335Views0likes4CommentsHelp! Annual leave accrual
Hi everyone, I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer to. I have 2 employees that were hired under permanent casual terms. One was hired in 2020 and the other in 2019. We have now made these 2 employee's full time permanent (changing their status from casual to fulltime & permanent in the "personal details" tab) and I am having trouble getting MYOB to accrue annual leave, personal leave and making MYOB record the leave on the pay advice slips. At a glance it appers that all relevant settings have been selected under the "personal details" > "payroll details" tab and also in the "entitlements" tabs in employee cards when comparing them to our existing fulltime employee cards. However, when completing a pay run I am finding that their personal and annual leave amounts are not being recorded on their pay advice, even though the "print on pay advice" boxes have been ticked. Is this because there is no leave calculating and as a result, there is no leave to show? It should still show a provision for this even though there is a zero balance, I thought? I have run an "entitlement balance" report and have found that both employees are showing leave accrued this way. Why would it not show under the "entitlements" tab? Both of our workers took personal leave this week, so after completing the pay run I decided to run another "entitlement balance" report and it has now shown that one worker took 8 hours of leave and the other one has no taken leave recorded. Both cards are set up exactly the same. Any ideas? I hope that this makes sense, it is hard to explain!299Views0likes1CommentPaying Annual Leave after Parental Leave
Hi I am using MYOB Payroll 2024.1 - for NZ Payroll. I have an employee who took 12 months of parental leave, and six months after returning to work she wishes to take some annual leave, of which was accrued and became annual leave whilst she was on parental leave. For clarity when she went on parental leave she had no annual leave owing to her, and some accrued (which turned into annual leave owing on her anniversary date whilst she was on parental leave). I understand that any annual leave accrued whilst on parental leave gets paid out using the AWE for the 12 months immediately before the annual leave is taken. I have tried using this support note (https://enterprise-support.myob.com/suppr/setting-up-an-employee-on-parental-leave-and-payin#expand-2Payingannualleaveupontheirreturn) to process the annual leave in the above mentioned situation. I am able to follow the instructions right up to selecting the option to "Use Average Weekly Pay". I am able to select this, however when I do so this still calculates Average Weekly Pay based on the past 4 weeks, rather than the past 52 weeks as required by NZ legislation in this situation. How do I override the 4 weeks so that it calculates the Average Weekly Pay over 52 weeks? I apologize if this has been asked on another post, I tried searching for relevant posts, but the only one I found was from 2-3 years ago and whilst it didn't appear to have a complete solution the replies have been closed.
