Re: [SL] Payroll

[Jeff R. <je...@jr...>]

Hi Jigme

I do the same as David, if you set up your 'deduction' liability 
accounts (tax owing, employment insurance owing, pension owing etc) they 
will appear in the drop down menus of the AP module. You can put in the 
gross pay and assign it to an expense and then use negative numbers to 
'deduct' from the gross and assign the 'deductions' to liability 
accounts. When I'm all done printing the cheques I do a GL entry to 
account for the matching expenses, I, for example, expense the amount I 
have to match on their pension contributions (Pension expense) and add 
it to a liability account called 'pension owing' (same account I used 
when cutting their cheque). This way both my contribution and their 
contribution end up in the same liability account. At the end of the 
month when it's time for remittance I pay from a bank account and 
decrease the liability account back to zero.

None of this does anything for the calculations that have to be made to 
determine how much each employee has to pay each of the various 
deductions. I have a spreadsheet with the Canadian formulas in it to do 
that and it's printout is what I use to cut the cheques and do the GL entry.
