Pastel Help: Unpaid leave and resignation

[TravisZA]

Hi, I need some help please.

We had an employee with a negative annual leave balance (-3 days) take unpaid leave from 1 Feb to 14 Feb (10 days). Upon returning to work on 15 Feb she resigned effective immediately.

How do I process in Pastel Payroll? I added "Unpaid leave" to her Masterfile, and then put the unpaid leave into her payslip - but as I see it this unpaid leave should be taken against her pay for Feb...how do I get Pastel to process it like this?

Final question..at what point do i terminate her in Pastel? Before processing payslips? afterwards?

Thanks.

Edited to add: do I have to manually add in transaction line 5020 to her payslip on the "Default" tab and assign it a Rand value?

Hi there,
Yes you have to activate the Unpaid leave on her Masterfile. Then you process it directly in the leave section on the payslip. The system will add code 5020 to the income tab. you do not have to add this code manually. It does not have to appear on the default tab, as it will not appear on the irp5.
You would first terminate her before you process the payslip.

Hi Christel, thanks for the help.

Once I terminate her, will pastel calculated that she should only get paid for the first 15 days of the month? (until her termination date)?
