Configuring leave

To keep track of employees' leave entitlements, you need to set up:

• Payroll award codes to group employees with similar leave entitlements. See Setting up payroll award codes.
• Leave codes to define the types of leave that an employee is entitled to take. See Setting up payroll leave codes.
• The rules that govern an employee's leave entitlements. See Leave entitlement rules.
• Link leave codes with pay types. See Linking leave codes with pay types.
• Integrate leave processing with Current Pay Maintenance, if required. See Integrating leave processing with Current Pay Maintenance.

Once you have set up the codes and entitlement rules, you need to:

• Link each payroll award code to each employee who has that award code in their FTE tab. See Payroll Maintenance - FTE tab.
• Determine the opening leave balances 'as at' a set date and define the entitlement day. See Integrating leave processing with Current Pay Maintenance.
• Decide whether you want to show leave entitlements on the employees' payslips. See Showing leave entitlements on payslips.
