Leave Corrections

Hi, there are a few employees where public holidays were entered as leave and visa versa, or wrong hours were entered.

At the end of the day, the pay amount was correct, but I need to get the leave balances correct. Do I just manually overwrite the available hours in the employee's information tab, or do I need to enter it another way?

Thanks!

    I guess it depends how many pays were affected - I’d go back, unlock each one & change the payroll items accordingly to correct it.

    You can manually just change the leave hours available in each affected employee’s record but if so, make sure you calculate the amount of hours to override on the the “as of” date as this is the end date.

    Thanks for your reply. The incorrect entries are in the prior financial year, so I don't want to change anything in that one. I don't like just adjusting the balance, but I have records and calculations to show what has been done, so it can be referred to if need be.

    Thanks again.

    @Retreev If you're only changing the Public Holiday Payroll Item & it's mapped the same as the ... Leave ones (eg both linked to "Salaries & Wages" Expense account), updating this on the Paycheques won't affect any figures as there are no changes being made to actual accounts 😁

    NOTE: The introduction of STP Phase 2 (rollout commencing from 01/01/22) - whilst still do-able - will make the above more challenging/time-consuming as Gross Wages, more Allowances & specific Deductions will be being broken down further for reporting at separate labels!
