Net wages posted to 2220 ledger and NOT copied to 7003

Hi @daveh001

I’m not @Glenn but I’ll certainly try to help :wink:

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
