Calculating leave entitlements

Leave entitlements calculated with the FTE calculation method accrue automatically each pay period, and as entitlement periods are passed. Leave entitlement for awards that use the Hours Worked calculation method must be calculated manually with the Calculate Leave Hours window.

Note: You cannot update the payroll for employees with hour-based leave until you have calculated the leave hours. Similarly, if the pay records are changed, the leave hours must be recalculated by running the Calculate Leave Hours program again.
