How to increase Public Holiday Entitlement to match hours worked on the day of a Public Holiday?

This article will show you how to increase the public holiday's entitlement to match the hours an employee worked on the day of a public holiday.

This option is normally used for Casual Contract Employees.

After you have run your Auto-roster for the Public Holiday
Navigate to the Week Roster Screen
Click on the shift rostered on the day of the Public Holiday for the employee
Edit the shift times to extend the rostered time to match the hours work.

For example:

A casual employee has earned a 3 Hour Public Holiday entitlement (based on the average hours over 13 weeks), they worked 5 hours on the day of the Public holiday and you want to match their paid PublicHoliday to their 5 hours worked. You edit the three-hour auto-rostered Public Holiday shift, change the duration to 5 hours and save the shift. This will save the additional 2 hours of Public Holiday entitlement to the employee's profile.

If you are happy with your update, click Save Shift Anyway
Alkimii save the additional time given to the employee in the auto-rostered Public Holiday Shift and in the Employee profile under Holiday > Holiday Balances → "Autorsoter Adjustments"

Once amended, an "!" will appear beside the figure detailing the changes that have been made.
