Is there a way to stop payroll posting to the bank account?

Hi zzriley12, 

 

I can see how pay run recording in the bank account directly can be confusing. In MYOB Business, the net pay is always meant to hit a bank or credit-card type account. That can be your normal bank account, a bank-type clearing account like Electronic/Payroll clearing, or a credit card account if you literally pay staff from a card (those credit card accounts are set up as liabilities, but they still behave as “bank” accounts in the software). It’s not designed to post straight to a generic liability like “wages payable”.

 

I recommend reading through the article Managing Linked Categories to understand how the software handles linked accounts.
