When i transfer a wage does this get coded to expense account?

Thanks for posting to the Community, @info884.

All wages are reported to the Payroll Expenses account. To check it, you can go to Accounting on the left pane and then select Chart of Accounts (COA) and then utilize the search box. Enter "Payroll Expenses".

Also, I'll add this article as your source on how to identify default account types and primary accounts in your QuickBooks Payroll COA: QuickBooks Payroll chart of accounts.

Please let me know if you need further assistance. I'll be around to help. Have a good one!
