how do I terminate an employee in reckon accounts hosted

Hi @Renee

Is there any amount actually being paid for time worked in this final Paycheque or is it just paying out AL & LSL entitlements ?

If so, you need to:

1. Create 2 separate pays - one for the final amount of Salary & the 2nd for just the entitlements OR
2. Remove the Salary line & use Hourly Payroll Items instead, for paying out entitlements because these are hours-specific rather than based on the salary figure.

The Salary Payroll Items work by automatically prorataring amounts - based on hours entered - to equal the same (pay frequency) total each pay, based on the annual Salary amount entered in the employee payroll record.

eg If you have $ 60,000 entered in the employee record with the pay frequency set to Monthly, each Paycheque will generate $ 5,000 (because $ 5000 x 12 mths = $ 60,000)

When paying any leave within a pay cycle, you would normally use the Salary Leave Payroll Items with the applicable hours entered. The system would then pro rata each one accordingly, to still equal the usual $ 5,000 monthly gross amount:

• Salary 80 Hrs > $ 2,500
• Personal Leave Salary 48 Hrs > $ 1,500
• Annual Leave Salary 32 Hrs > $ 1,000
