ANNUAL LEAVE REQUESTS

V1W184

Is there a way in Reckon Hosted to submit upcoming annual leave requests so when time comes to pay employee it is already sitting in the system?

Not as a request/electronically. However, Timesheets are an (often under-utilised) feature which can be very useful as you can enter it in advance there (which then automatically flows through into the specific Paycheque) ☺️

Hi Shaz, thanks for great information. Currently our Hosted doesn;t have timesheet functionality. Is this something I am able to easily activate?

To elaborate further on Kris's advice:

This will then generate a new checkbox in all Employee records, which needs to be ticked to enable time entries:

I knew you would know the finer points @AccountsReceivableMH Shaz, I don’t use the feature but knew where to turn it on

It will actually prompt you to automatically tick that checkbox when you select the employee on a timesheet:

... & the great thing about it is - if you don't want to use timesheets in full - you can just use it for advance leave approvals to ensure these doesn't get forgotten when processing the applicable pay !:

(Annoyingly, the Billable checkbox on each line ticks by default so if you don't on-charge employee hours to Customers, just need to untick this)

Once saved, this then flows through to automatically prompt for incorporating into payroll for the applicable period:

Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. Not an easy feature to find in Reckon.
