Setting up Long Service Leave on RAH

Hi everyone,

We have 2 employees approaching their 7th year as our employee and so I was asked to set up their LSL and make provision. I found this - file:///C:/Users/pcktr/Documents/Pay%20Slips/Long_Service_Leave_in_QuickBooks.pdf BUT it seems not directly for RAH users so even though I have renamed Other 1 to LSL, it still doesn't show on payslip (I was expecting it will show there anyway).

Can anyone please point me in the right direction and help me find instruction please? These employees were on hourly rate and we are a NFP organisation. Will this be shown on their payslips once it is set up or will it show once they reach their 7th year mark? Please enlighten me and thank you so much for any input on this.

Regards,

Rachel😘

Hi Rachel

You may just not have it set to print on Pay Slips.

Go to Edit (along top toolbar) then click on Preferences in dropdown menu.

Click on Payroll & Employees from LHS navigator list then click on the Company Preferences tab.

Here, you will see a "Printing Preferences" button for Pay Slips - You need to have the checkbox ticked for each Leave you want to display on Pay Slips:

Thank you so much @Shaz - I can see the LSL on their payslips now with 0.00 numbers on all. Notice that there is no slot for "begin accruing time on" like the instruction is showing. I will get back to it again some other time, at least what I'm after is fixed - appreciate your help.

Hi Rachel

Your screenshot above is just Leave Defaults eg info that's the same for ALL employees.

If you go into each Employee's Leave tab, you'll see their "Hours available ...", "Hours used ..." & "Begin accruing time on ..." options there for you to enter/select accordingly 😃

Hi Shaz,

I finally managed to find Employee's leave tab and edit it as per instruction, thank you sooooo much for your help.

Hi! I am in need of help I have a few employees that are well & truly due for LSL I have not set them up. I do need help I think.

Is this something you do or do I need someone else to help me..

@DianeMckone1954 Yes, I can certainly help you with that.

I recommend setting up the LSL - along with the PL/SL & AL - by default so that the available hours to pay out are there should an employee be eligible.

If you’ve not been tracking it to date, manual calculations will be required at this stage.

Are you in WA? Happy to do a remote session if not/preferred.

Feel free to email me directly ☺️

Thanks for getting back to me, I am in Qld. I have worked out some that are entitled for LSL as they have never used it & a couple have been here more 20 years & never taken it. (me included)

I have set up all the other staff that have only been here for a few years, not sure if it start to calculate theirs once it hits the magic date?

We can do this remotely if you would like to check that I have done this correctly, I will be back in office on Monday from 7 am .

Hi Di

I would have it setup to calculate from the beginning. The employee is only eligible for it once they hit the required length of service.

Happy to do a remote session with you next week to get it all sorted. If you’d like to do that, email me directly & we can tee it up 😊
