Each month the platform calculates every employee’s cumulative benefit at the month-end. The difference from the previous month is the monthly accrual: the benefit employers took on that month. This screen is where you check it happened, and happened correctly.
Where: Monthly Accruals in the menu. It opens on the most recent month-end.
The calculation runs automatically the night after each month ends; if the platform was unavailable, it catches up the following night. The platform administrator can also run a month by hand. You review the results.

Computation exceptions

Select Computation Exceptions to list the accrual records the monthly run could not finalise, for example because an employee’s salary or opening balance is missing. The page opens on the last month-end; change Month end to look at another month. Each row shows the period, employee, employer, the exception code, what it blocks, its review status and when it was raised. Follow up anything listed with the platform administrator, who corrects the source data so the next run can finalise it.
  • The run completed. A month still Not run a few days after month-end is worth raising with the administrator.
  • Exceptions are 0. Each exception is an employee whose benefit is missing from the totals, so the employer’s liability is understated until it is fixed.
  • Movements are plausible. An employer’s accrual normally changes little from month to month. Large jumps usually mean new staff, pay rises or employees passing a work anniversary — check in the employee view. The formula is explained in How benefits are calculated.
