Occasionally there may be a requirement to make an amendment to the automatic holiday accrual (for example adding an additional accrual value when a worker is absent). This can be done via the Pay -> Adjustments screen or the Employee One-Off Payments Importer by adding a value in the Amount field against the pay element Additional Holiday..

Mistimed Payments (N/A to Hourly Type)

Any clients configured for out of step timesheet functionality will accrue holiday based on this, so for example a weekly worker that has 2 weeks of timesheets paid in one week will accrue 2 weeks holiday (provided that holiday hasn’t previously been accrued for the specific period).

The calculation of average rate will also take into account mistimed periods.    

Partial Period Accrual (N/A to Hourly Type)

As discussed in Section 5 InPay will accrue a partial period where holiday is claimed and the employee works in the same period. So for example if a worker that is weekly paid and takes 2 days holiday in the week and the employee also submits a timesheet they will accrue 3/5 of the normal value. If the holiday entered crosses multiple pay periods then InPay will assume a Monday to Friday work pattern and adjust the accrual accordingly.

It should be noted that holiday already accrued for a worker in a closed period will not be reduced if a subsequent late holiday request is received for that committed period.  

Migration

When migrating a new client onto InPay the system will require previous periods pay (12 for weekly) in order to correctly calculate the average rate. To enable this, a new importer has been created called Employee Holiday Take On. A template can be downloaded which will include all the current workers on the payroll and any pay previously imported.

When populating this file please ensure that

            1) The most recent pay is entered into period 1.

2) Only pay that accrues holiday should be included. This means the amount may differ from Gross Pay.

3) Weeks where the worker does not accrue holiday should not be included in the file. For example if the worker is migrated in week 16 and no pay has been received in week 14 or 15 the pay for week 13 should be populated in the field Period1Pay

...

On occasion a worker’s pay frequency may be changed, for example from being paid weekly to monthly. If the worker is already on a holiday scheme this will result in the following

1) The user will be asked to specify a holiday scheme that has a type equivalent to the new pay frequency (N/A to Hourly Type)                        2) Any migrated pay imported (see the previous section) will be deleted

32) The average rate will only be calculated on pay on the new payroll. Under this scenario the user will have the option of re-importing figures (see the previous section) for use in the calculation.
