Unpaid Absence as deduction on paystub

Post by Usha »

Hi,

I have created an absence accrual called "Vacation(unpaid)"(standard).

This accrual accounts for all the PTO/Vacation that goes unpaid. The opening balance is 0. This is 'docked' against 'Earnings-Regular'. When i create the paystub i want to put this as 'employee deduction'. But it does not let me select the accrual to make it a deduction.

CURRENT SCENARIO
Earnings regular = Eanings Regular - Unpaid PTO/Vaction ( docked gainst Earnings-Regular)


DESIRED SCENARIO

Earnings-Regular ------- 150000
Bonus --------- 3000

Deduction
Professional tax -----150
PTO/Vacation ( Unpaid) ---------------xxxxxxxx <--------- Want this as deduction
Income tax 1500


Net Pay ----------------- yyyyyyy


Need help to set it up.

If I understand your question correctly, an accrual for unpaid vacation won't serve you any purpose, because time will always be withdrawn from it, never deposited.

Instead you will just want a basic absence policy that is type "Docked" from the Regular Time earning account.

Docked absences reduce gross income, they aren't consider a deduction because that can often throw taxes and other deductions off as well.
