Payroll Monthly Manual Journals

Hi,

 

I use QBooks for one of my Client with Payroll processed monthly on a different software. I need help with how to post the correct monthly payroll JRN to reflect wages paid from bank account as well as PAYE/NI liability.

I have set up Expense/Payroll Expenses X Employee for each employee - this is as far as I got.

I also need to post the Employer Allowance to reflect the monthly allowance for NI given by HMRC and need to find out the correct JRN entry.

Hi @Elena Teofil 

 

I tend to enter these as Cheques rather than Journals but the effect is the same I think.

I don't separate out individual employees - just do as one bulk payment - although I do separate pension & NI contributions...

Notice that the first three lines add to Expenses (positive numbers) while the final three reduce the payment (negative) by moving the amounts to Liabilities.

 

Hope this helps.

Same again - I post this directly to the PAYE/NIC Cheque, simply as a reduction in the Employer NIC Expenses...


 

Hope this helps.
