This article explains, how to set up vacation pay Entry code that will deduct the fixed salary + the fifth vacation week.

Description

Holiday pay is earned the year before the vacation is taken, and is paid instead of salary in the month the vacation is held. An Employee that was not employed the previous year, will have the right to take vacation, but without getting vacation pay from the current Employer. As Employer you have to calculate and accumulate vacation pay for each employee every month.

When you as Employer operate with 5 days work week and 5 weeks holiday, you must deduct wages for 25 working days, while the monthly salary covers 22 working days. This deduction should not reduce the wages or the holiday pay in A-melding, but instead be reported as a separate deduction.
