Xero Payroll calculates superannuation accrual based on ATO guidelines. As each business situation differs, the default setting is no superannuation calculated on leave loading amounts included in a pay run. To find out more about leave loading rates and eligibility refer to payment for annual leave (Fair Work ombudsman website).
What is leave loading in Xero?
In Xero, leave loading is paid to eligible employees (those who have had the box ticked in their Taxes tab) by simply increasing the pay rate of annual leave paid by the percentage given in the payroll settings. (I know it can be a separate item in other accounting packages).
Why isn’t my leave loading calculating?
When leave loading has been set up correctly, there won’t be a separate line in the pay run. Instead, the hourly rate on the leave line will be higher to include the leave loading percentage. If all of this looks ok but the leave loading still isn’t calculating, you might like to get in touch with Support so they can help you out.
