Hi @daveh001
I’m not @Glenn but I’ll certainly try to help
How the tagging of the wages are handled within QuickFile depends on a setting in your advanced features (Account Settings >> Advanced Features).
- If this is set to ‘On’, it will only post to your balance sheet codes and you would need to create a payroll journal.
- If it’s set to ‘Off’, it will create 2 entries - one to payroll, and one to the P&L code (implying it’s been paid)
There’s more information on this from my colleague, here.
Typically you would move them using a journal. I’m guessing from what you’ve said that the advanced feature is turned on, in which case you would need to create a journal.
There are also some examples of journals here, which includes some details about directors compared to non-directors.
If you’re unsure, I’d recommend speaking to your accountant to make sure it’s correct.
Hope this helps
