Hi Marissa3,
The JOBKEEPER-TOPUP within our system is designed on ATO standards not to accrue leave. As it is a replacement for hours not worked on an employees normal hours, it does not link to any leave category when used like a ordinary hours category would.
That being said if you wish to still amend these accruals, you can first go to your Leave Categories section to establish what Standard Allowance you need to use to calculate for each category against the employee's ordinary hours. You can get there by going:
- When signed into the Employee section, select Payroll Settings.
- Under Pay Run Settings, select Leave Categories.
- Then by selecting each category you can check what the Standard Allowance is based on hours per hour worked.
Good reports to use to establish how many hours they have worked in total between any given pay period is the Detailed Activity Report and the Pay Categories Report.
- The first report gives a summary of total hours worked, gross earnings and taxable earnings with any customisable date range you would like.
- The second report, would allow for you to pin point, by customising to JOBKEEPER-TOPUP, to give you the break down of units (hours) paid to this pay category, and it's total earnings.
A combination of both would help you calculate the hours and then apply them to the Standard Allowance that the Leave Categories entitles the employees too.
Once you have calculated the hours, within any pay run you can then do a Leave Adjustment if you wish, and this will add the hours you have calculated to the employee's overall. For steps on how to then add those hours to the employee through this adjustment you can find a guide by clicking here.
Thanks,
