Holiday Pay As You Go

To set an employee to receive their Holiday Pay on an As-You-Go basis view their record under Manage > Employees. 

Ensure the employee's normal rate is excluding holiday pay, and the holiday pay % on the employee's Leave tab is set appropriately (usually 8%). On their Leave tab select the check box Pay As You Go under the Holiday Pay settings to include this employee's holiday pay with each pay. 

PayHero will assume the employee has always been on Holiday Pay As You Go and will enter any Holiday Pay Accrued into Holidays Paid Out. If they have not yet been paid out that amount, ensure you set the Holidays Paid Out figure to $0.

Once an employee is set to receive Holiday Pay As You Go, the appropriate amount will be automatically calculated by PayHero each time a pay is created. 

In the first pay after setting an employee on Holiday Pay As You Go, PayHero will automatically pay out all outstanding Holiday Pay. If the employee wasn't previously on Holiday Pay As You Go and their Holidays Paid Out was correctly set to $0, you'll see a warning message in the draft pay stating that the holiday pay amount is different to the % amount set for that employee:
