Paycircle Ideas Portal
Currently when a maternity schedule reaches the end of paid maternity leave, it finishes and puts employees straight back onto their full salary. For those that remain on unpaid maternity leave for up to the next 13 weeks, this creates an extra step for us to then have to remove their pay and a potential overpayment issue if this is missed. If the maternity schedules included the 13 weeks of unpaid maternity leave available to employees, this would eliminate this problem.
| Describe the Challenge | stopping potential overpayments and removing extra processing steps |
with regards to the alabaster - you just update the schedule and amend their gross earnings for the qualifying periods, this then recalculates the schedule.
For the unpaid period, can you not put the end date to be at the end of the 13 week period?
Hi All
Whilst we have still got this feature request as a future consideration, I wanted to update you on a small enhancement in this area that may help here.
We have introduced a new ‘Warning’ alert within Paycircle to let you know when Statutory Schedules are ending within the current period. With this new alert, you’ll now get an extra prompt when processing payroll so that you can ensure the employees whose statutory leave is coming to an ends pay/profile is updated accurately, either with them returning to the payroll, or proceeding with their leave.
You’ll see this new alert along with any other payroll alerts you may have with the ‘Alerts’ tab within the ‘Current period’.
This would also help with the Alabaster Ruling as we have had an Employee have a pay rise in the unpaid period, which means we have had to manually calculate and process the extra payment.
