Spit payrun amount

How can I split a pay run to match two deposit amounts?  My pay runs are set up to deposit the exact amount each week.  This week one employee had one day as holiday pay.  When I paid this extra amount to match what was already paid into their account, MYOB does not allow me to match the two transactions to the one pay run.  How do I correct and match the pay run?

  • Hi canvasconcepts,

     

    Thank you for the post. To assist you with splitting a pay run to match your deposit amounts, you need to create a clearing account. Go to Settings> Accounts List> Add New. Create the new account and save it and move back to the Bank Transaction screen.

     

    Allocate the separate payments to the newly created clearing account and then go to Banking> Transaction History. Click on the reference number to open the original transaction and view the accounts.

     

    Create a journal entry to transfer the amount between the original account and the clearing account. To ensure everything is balanced, check the General Ledger Details report.
