Adjusting entitlements and TOIL balances
Adjustments to leave and TOIL balances can be made within the payslip by editing. This is useful if an employee's entitlements need adjusting.
You may need to adjust:
- Annual leave
- Personal leave
- Or, TOIL (which has a specific Redeem TOIL button).
Adjustments can be entered as positive or negative values and will display on the payslip for the employee to see.
