OWP 4 Week Inspection

Form ID: (MPPP3180)

The OWP 4 Week Inspection screen provides insight into how the Ordinary Weekly Pay 4 Week rate was calculated for an employee, displaying the gross liable income in the four-week look back. This screen is only accessible from the Employee Leave Summary (NZ) (MPPP4045) screen.

When calculating the OWP rate, the system looks back at the four week period directly before the employee took their leave. For example, the employee is going to start their Holiday on Wednesday 23 Sept 2020, which falls into a pay period that runs from Mon 21 September to Sun September. In this case, the look back period will run from Mon 24 August to Sunday 20 September.
