Unfortunately, I have already run payroll and now am in a dilemma - as I ran the pay with the PPL as hourly rate, I can't now change it to salary as that will delete the PPL payment made today.
I also had to dedeuct the 2 public holidays and swap the sick leave for a PPL day, so her pay is thus:
6 days at PPL
less 2 days PH
less 1 day sick leave
our payroll is weekly
How best to resolve this? Should I delete the payrun made to her today, amend as you suggest above, then re-run her pay??
actually, the more I think about this, the silllier it is to have it set to salary - as the person is not paid for public holidays, how do you reduce the weekly (5 days pay) to only 4 days, to accommodate the one day that is a public holiday? E.G. we will have a public holiday on Monday 5 May for Labor day, how do you deduct that from the set PPL figure? I tried to do that in the aforementioned payroll but it refused to deduct the PH and sick leav from the PPL when the PPL was set to salary, hence I had to change it to hourly rate.
