Leave accrual accumulating a large number of hours

Legacy KB ID: 4305

Question

When doing a pay run in Payroll Premier, why do large amounts of leave accrue?

Answer

This problem may occur on employees whose Period in Leave Accrual Details is a fixed period like Weeks, and at some time an incorrect date, forward of the current date, was entered when leave was recorded. 

Payroll Premier now calculates leave up to this date, resulting in more than the appropriate number of hours being accumulated. 

 

Solution

To correct the accrual date carry out the following steps.  The employee’s record under the Leave tab:

1.    Change leave Accrual Details from the existing period (like Weeks) to Pays for all lines;

2.    Enter the correct Hrs Accrued To Date amounts;

3.    Click OK;

4.    Enter in the Date Paid of the last pay;

5.    Rebuild – tick all boxes except those relating to Super (boxes 2 & 6);

6.    Change Accrual Details from Pays to the original period (like Weeks) for all lines;

7.    Click OK;

8.    Leave displayed date.

Your pay should now accumulate the correct number of leave hours.
