AU payroll - Allow leave accrual on all Ordinary Time Earnings (OTE) regardless of rate calculation type
Problem: Xero only automatically accrues leave on OTE pay items if the rate is set to "Multiple of employee's ordinary earnings rate".
Impact: Custom hourly rates or flat-rate OTE pay items (e.g., higher weekend rates above standard award multiples) cannot accrue leave automatically, creating compliance risks and extra manual work.
Solution: Enable the "Accrue Leave" setting for all pay items configured as Ordinary Time Earnings, regardless of the rate calculation method selected.
