AccountRight Plus and Premier, Australia only The Entitlement section in the Payroll Details tab of an employee’s card displays the entitlement amounts that have been carried over from the previous payroll year, the entitlement amounts for the year to date, and the total entitlement amounts owing to the employee. For example, an employee may have 40 hours of accrued annual leave carried over from the last payroll year. In the current financial year, the employee has accrued another 10 hours, but has taken 8 hours of annual leave. Therefore, 2 hours will be displayed in the Year-to-Date column and the Total column will display 42 hours. | UI Text Box |

| Why is there a 'Difference' shown on the Entitlement Balance (Detail) report?If there's a Difference shown on the Entitlement Balance (Detail) report, it means there's a difference between the entitlement balance from pay runs and the Pay History in the employee's card. This usually happens if the entitlement value has been manually changed in the employee's Pay History. To identify the month where this may have occurred, run the Entitlement Balance (Detail) report for the current month, then progressively run the report for the previous month until the Difference shows 0.00. You can then display the employee's Pay History for that month and correct the difference. |

| I’ve recorded pays with incorrect leave hours. How do I fix the leave balances?Either make the adjustment on the employee’s next pay, or record a pay for $0 that only includes the leave hour adjustment. (If you only need to do this for one employee, select the Process individual employee option in the Pay Period step of the Process Payroll assistant.) In the example below, we want to adjust the employee’s holiday leave balance by 5 hours. Notice that all hours and amounts on the pay are zero, except for the entitlement's Hours column. 
A few more tips: - Enter ADJ in the Cheque No. field, so you can identify it as an adjustment.
- Enter a description of the adjustment in the Memo field.
- Set the Pay Slip Delivery Status to Already Printed or Sent, so that it doesn’t appear in email and print lists.
- When recording the $0 pay, you'll see a message that you're about to void a cheque. That’s OK in this case.
