Running leave reports for a historic date

MYOB Exo Payroll has reports that show the employee's current leave entitlements. The Leave Balances report will give the current balance and value of the different leave types.

MYOB Exo Payroll is not designed to store historical leave balances. This means that when the Leave Balances report is run, the balance amounts are pulled from the employees current balance which is stored in Employee Maintenance.

Any report that includes leave balances, such as Payslips, when run for a historical date will reflect the current leave balance stored in Employee Maintenance.

If the reports are to be run as of a certain date then a restore of a backup of the company data will need to be done. The backup being restored must be from the desired period that the reports are to be run for. To restore the historical data, the backup can be restored into the current company folder or to a new company folder.

  3. Run the Leave Balances report or any other desired report for the intended employees.
