    Hi newbieCath 

    Correct - you would correct the leave details screen and convert her Hol Pay accrued to annual leave in hours.

    Her gross earnings should only be the grossearnings since her anniversary date and then calculate 8% of that and overtype the hol pay accrued amount.

    Do you have normal hours per day/ normal days per week entered? (to give her normal hours per week - if this is not entered, then she gets no entitlement which would muck up the leave roll over.

    her annual leave entitlement is in hours not $. eg: if you worked out what her average hours per week are and say it worked out at 42 hours per week average, then you would give her an entitlement of 168 hours, then take off what she has taken, leaving her with the balance. The system will work out what the rate is as this can change on a weekly basis depending on when she takes her leave.

Hi jenniek,

 

Thank you for your reply.  The system does usually prompt me to update the leave entitlements.  She had her anniversary last week and it doesn't seem to have updated her leave.  I am sure she has more holidays owing then what the system has.  So do I need to work out her annual gross earnings for each year and then convert that to annual leave less the leave she has taken?

 

I found her year to date earnings and worked out the 8% gross per year less the leave she has taken and it did alter her leave a bit.  It is still showing as a negative hours figure though her holiday pay looks accurate now.
