Alternative Leave Paid

Where alternative leave is being measured in days, this is for paying an employee for an extra holiday earned during a prior pay period, during which the employee worked on a statutory holiday or a rostered day off. This will reduce from the alternative leave entitlement field in the payroll's Open Employee screen (sick & other leave tab). It requires the number of hours to pay (at the employee's relevant hourly rate) and the number of Days of Alternative Leave to Reduce for those hours.
