Configure Default Allowances

Firstly, you must configure the options on the Holiday Set-Up > Default Allowance and the Holiday Set-Up > Holiday Calculation tabs.

It is important to note that changes made on the Holiday Set-Up screen will only affect newemployees that you create after making these changes. To update existing employees, use Global Changes.

Default Allowance tab

Holiday Pay

This is where you ‘switch on’ the module as described previously, and where you input your default holiday rates and allowances for the company.
