You can determine whether an absence will be paid or unpaid based on the absence class used when submitting leave. Each absence class can be marked as Paid or Unpaid, but that is the full extent of the setup that can be done in Access Education People. The rate at which an absence is paid is set up in the Payroll software rather than Education People.
To determine whether an absence class is paid or unpaid:
Go to Setup and click Settings.
Click Module Settings, then HR.
Click Absence Class.
Click one of the absence classes in the list.
Tick or untick the Paid Leave box as needed.
Click Save.
All leave submitted using this absence class will now be paid or unpaid based on the Paid Leave box being ticked or unticked.
📌 Note: This setting can only be applied to leave. You cannot determine if a sickness is paid or unpaid from the Access Education People software. For any queries on the rate at which leave or sickness is paid at please contact your Payroll Agent.
