Setting up user-definable shift leave (New Zealand)
MYOB Exo Payroll is already setup with Holiday Pay, Sick Pay, Bereavement Leave, Alternative Leave, Long Service Leave, Public Holidays and Unpaid Leave. However, if another form of leave is required then MYOB Exo Payroll New Zealand version provides an option to set this up.
As Shift Leave is a global Leave Type, when it is activated all employees will have this available in the Sick and Other Leave tab of their Employee Maintenance. Entitlements for employees are setup individually in each employee record.
