Entitlements
If the employee is entitled to Sick Leave and/ or Holiday Leave and Loading complete the leave entitlement section. As pays are processed by the system the amount of leave will be accumulated. For example, if a weekly employee is entitled to 152 hours (4 weeks) annual leave, the system will accumulate 1/52 (or 2.9231 hours) of annual leave each pay period. Leave taken during the course of the year will be recorded and deducted for the employee's leave entitlements.
Standard Pay
Within Payroll you can define a standard pay for each employee. When the system commences a new pay period the standard pay for each employee is copied to the current pay transaction file. The pay is adjusted for any variations that have occurred in the current pay period. Setting up a standard pay will save considerable time in the weekly pay processing cycle.
Policies
Clear, up-to-date and robust employment policies inform employees what is and is not appropriate behaviour in your workplace, and help staff to comply with your expectations. Strong employment policies and compliant-management procedures also ensure you can respond with confidence if your staff act inappropiately.
With Payroll you can select which of your company policies appy to each employee. You can record when a particular policy was assigned to an employee and when the employee agreed to abide by the policy. Before an employee commences employment you can send him/her an email which they can use to view and accept each of the policies that apply to them. This procedure also allows the employee to complete a form to provide their name and address and other details required for their employment.
Payroll History
The payroll system keeps details of each pay made by the system. Previous pays for an employee made be viewed and payslips printed for any previous pay period.
