Reconciling a split wage payment to a Payroll EFT

Hi

Anyone that can help me with how to reconcile a split wage payment in AccountRight to the Payroll EFT. 

 

Client is not doing electronic payments so everything is set up as cash. Staff member was paid $150 and $700 on the same day but it will not match with the pay run. Even when you manually try it can't find the payrun entry from the bank feeds. I haver tried hiding the bank feed and manually reconciling the AccountRight entry but it does not appear in the reconciliation yet it shows in the bank register as unreconciled.

 

Pretty frustrating that such a simple thing is so hard tto figure out.

 

Thanks for your help

    If you don't want to use Electronic payments you'll need to change the employee payments method to either cash or cheque in the Payroll>>Employees>>Payment details tab. You'll also need to check the linked accounts for payroll in Accounting>>Manage linked accounts>>Payroll. Make sure the payment method you selected for your employees has the correct account linked. For example, if you manually transfer each payment amount in Internet banking select cash or cheque as the payment method and in linked accounts, the bank account for cash or (cheque) payments should be the bank account.

     

    In the Prepare electronic payment window if you have the Direct Payment button instead of Download the file, you have set up Direct Payments.
