Summary
Description
Use this report to check your employees' average weekly hours and average weekly pay over a 52-week period.
NOTE: This report can be useful if you're calculating employee holidays. However, if you're unsure how to do this, contact ACAS for advice.
Resolution
To run the report:
- Select the relevant employees.
- Click Reports, then Employee.
- Find and select the Employee 52 Weekly Average Report.
- Click Preview or Print as required.
- In the Criteria window, enter the starting point of the 52-week period in the Processing date box.
- Click the blank dropdown box to the right of Payment ref.
- Select the payments to include on this list.
TIP: The report includes all payments if you make no selections on this list. - Click OK.

CAUTION: The calculation built into this report always divides by 52.
Bespoke report
There may be cases where you need a 52-week average where you didn't pay employees in some periods. The report included in your software can't do this as it always divides by 52.
To get a report that calculates this correctly, you can submit a Report Design Request. This option is only available for weekly pay frequency.
NOTE: If you set up payroll mid year by entering year to date values, the bespoke report isn't an option. This is because the report requires processing history to calculate from.
