Profit and Loss figures don't match my Profit and Loss Report

[David_H]

Certain payruns that have been run show up in a General Ledger report but not in expense account

For instance:

Wages in Profit and loss are $309,994.14  and super is $30,967.06

In the general ledger, these accounts are $323,922.62 and $32,359.90 respectively.

It's as if payruns 280 to 298 are invisible to the profit and loss report.

Hi

what are the payment dates on the two missing payrolls?

they would be posted to the general ledger as at those dates.

Posting a journal doesn't help because the wages and super accounts will increase on the P & L  which is also reflected in the General Ledger Report.

Also for the record is 19 payslips that are affected.

Payment dates, running the P & L in accrual vs Cash, putting a balance in an opening balance and removing it - none of these things work

[LRBooks61]

The payment dates of the payroll will affect your p&l

so what are the payment dates of the payrolls that you say are missing?

if you drill down into the account in your p&l you can see exactly what transactions are appearing in that year. You should be able to figure what is what from that

No joy I'm afraid

Payment date in the same financial year

In Find my transactions for Wages and Salaries, the Ending Balance is $199,829.33 as at 26 April through to 30 April.

As at 1 May, the Opening Balance magically becomes $185,900.85.

MYOB have taken a copy of the file and I hope they can fix it.  I think the balances are incorrect in the background where the P & L is drawn from.  This background amount I suspect allows reports to be run quicker than summing the transactions.  As this background is not reflecting the General Ledger as it should, the P & L is out.
