    Hi everyone, thanks for your feedback on this idea. We appreciate you sharing how important accurate leave accruals are for managing payroll when employees work at different rates across various days or departments.

    While we aren't able to add this to our roadmap right now, we want to make sure you are aware that it is currently possible to set up leave to accrue on more than one earnings rate.

    As mentioned in this thread, the key is to set the Rate Type for these additional items to "Multiple of Employee's Ordinary Earnings Rate".

    Please refer to our support article Set up overtime or earnings that accrue leave for a guide on how to do this. We'll keep this thread active for future feedback.

    Can you please add the option to attached multiple Ordinary Earnings Rates to an employee's Employment Information (See Snip attached).

    Currently only one Ordinary Earnings Rate is available per employee - to be able to add more rates and have their leave calculated correctly it needs to be a multiple of this Ordinary Rate - eg Ordinary Hours - Plumbers - Ordinary Hours - Plumbers Sat (*0.5).

    However, this does not work for all scenarios - and it not easy to see that it is an issue for an employee until an audit of the leave is processed.
