When you process the employee's pay, record the number of hours taken against the Unpaid Leave wage category. Depending on how much of the pay period is unpaid leave, you'll also need to modify other amounts on the pay.
If the entire pay period is unpaid leave
Remove all other hours and amounts to ensure the Net Pay is $0.00
Here's an example of 40 hours unpaid leave.
If only a portion of the pay period is unpaid leave
For employees paid an hourly rate, reduce the Base Hourly hours by the number of unpaid leave hours.
Here's an example of 8 hours unpaid leave which reduces the Base Hourly from 40 hours to 32 hours.
For salaried employees, reduce the Base Salary amount to cater for the unpaid leave. You can calculate this by checking the employee's hourly rate and multiplying it by the hours of unpaid leave taken.
Here's an example of 8 hours unpaid leave which reduces the Base Salary amount.
