Salary Employees allocating to costs of sales from activity slips

Patto1

I have several salaried employees (fixed salary) that charge out by the hour. I need to apportion their salary to Cost of Sales and general employee expense depending on how much time is spend completing overhead/admin tasks for the business.

 

How can I do this? The activity slip does not come up with an option to allocate a payroll activity that is a salary.

 

Thanks

Hi @Patto1,

 

Thank you for your post, and welcome to the Community forum. I hope you find this forum full of information.

 

Every employee's recorded pay will go to the wages and salary expenses account. If you wish to have your employee's wage figures go to the cost of sales account, you would be looking at recording a journal entry after the process pays to transfer the balance from the wages and salary account to the required cost of sales account.

 

For further information on recording journal entries, please see the Help Article: Recording a Journal Entry.

 

Regarding the activity slips allocating to payroll activity, as this is not available in the system, I would encourage you to post this idea to our AccountRight exchange for consideration by our developers.

 

Please feel free to post again if you need help in the future. I'm happy to assist.

 

Cheers,

Princess
