This problem is not in the DOS version because it uses a different date object

• Problem not printing leave details on random employee payslips - Payslips do not print leave details or direct credits for one off payments. There is a field on each employee record called OffPaymentFlag which is set true when making up a one off payment for the employee. This field is then examined by the payslip printing routine to suppress printing leave & direct credit data for OneOffPayments. Up to this version the field was then set false when the OneOffPayment was filed but the logic overlooked the case where a one off payment was calculated for an employee but was not filed. From this version on the flag is set false at the end of the OneOffPayment routine rather than in the filing routine.
