Description
The following changes have been made to entitlement balance conditions for leave taken deduction rules:
the existing Sufficient entitlement balance type has been enhanced so that it will pay up to the entitlement balance (e.g. if leave entitlement balance is 5 days but 7 days leave are taken, 5 days will be paid and the remaining 2 days will be unpaid).
a new entitlement balance type of Insufficient has been added to pay the difference between the entitlement balance and the balance required to pay the full duration of the leave if the entitlement balance is insufficient (e.g. if leave entitlement balance is 5 days but 7 days leave are taken, 2 days will be paid and the remaining 5 days will be unpaid).
If an entitlement balance condition is not used on a deduction rule for leave taken, the entire duration of leave taken is paid irrespective of a payee’s entitlement balance, as was the case previously.
Benefits
This enhancement provides more flexibility to cater for paying leave in situations where a payee has an insufficient leave entitlement balance to cover the entire duration of leave taken. For example, the following scenarios can now be catered for:
partial payment of leave taken
paying the portion of leave that can be covered by the balance of entitlement at a different rate to the remainder of the leave duration.
