If not, this can be a costly mistake.
IN XERO leave taken by employees must be processed the correct way or else the leave you pay them, may not be deducted from their leave entitlement. (A happy employee, but a costly mistake to you)
If you simply just add a Leave line (like you would add overtime in a payrun) you may be potentially paying them leave without deducting it from their entitlement.
Remember too, that leave loading is applied to most awards at 17.5%, so if leave loading applies to your award, the leave rate should in affect, be 17.5% more than their normal rate. (as it includes both the annual leave and loading)
To correctly process an employee’s leave, you need to SUBMIT and approve A LEAVE REQUEST, and then when you do the pay run that includes the leave dates, you will see the annual leave line is already completed.
