Summary
You may set up the default number of days your employees are allowed to take as holiday. This will then be entered into the Holiday Days field on Page 1: General, when a new employee record is created. This can be amended in the employee's record as necessary. You may also specify whether holiday days can be carried over Tax Years.
Details
- Go to "Payroll" -> "Payroll Parameters/Maintenance" -> "Company Parameters" -> "General Company Details"
Your screen will resemble the screen displayed below:
General Parameters Payroll Tax Year Start : 9999 Default Holidays Days : 20 Carry Days Forward? : N (Y/N) PAYE District : District Number : Reference Number :
Holiday Allowance Defaults
This is a default setting. When new employee records are created, this default figure will be entered into the Holiday Days field on Page 1: General of the employee's record.
PLEASE NOTE: Changing the default will not affect existing employee records. |
Enter the number of days holiday employees are entitled to by default e.g. 20.
PLEASE NOTE: This can be amended in the employee record for individuals - see Employee Amendments -> General (Page 1). This field is not compulsory so you may set it to Zero if necessary. |
Carry Days Forward?
Do you want any unused holiday days to be carried forward to the next Tax Year?
- "Y" - Yes, carry days forward.
- "N" - No, at the start of a new year any days left are lost.
