It would be good to be able to add less than 4 days sickness to the leave calendar even though they wont be paid by SSP but have it still deduct their wages rather than having to do it manually.
Hi Parry.
Thanks for your suggestion. As you indicated the existing use case for adding sickness in the leave calendar is to make payment of SSP, rather than a record of sickness per se or deducting normal pay due to days off; the latter is currently achieved by adding a 'sick day' deduction of some sort or manually reducing their regular pay instead, whichever is your preference. I will present a use case for having a configuration that, if set, would deduct normal pay for the employee on days they are marked as sick, irrespective of whether SSP is paid or not. It may be we merge this idea with the one we already have in the backlog for setting up occupational sick schemes which will allow you to manipulate this as you prefer.
Cheers
Dylan
