Employee deduction for non work related amount

Hi,

 

I need to deduct an amount from an employee for a non work related amount/expense.  (Personal) 

I set the ATO to not reportable and which linked account?  Do I create an account called Personal???

 

Cheers  V

    Hi VE1, 

     

    Thank you for your post.

     

    Regarding this, one option is you could create a payroll category for the deduction. We have an article that explains how to do this when an employee has non-work deductions. This help article, deductions will give you the detailed information and steps to assist you with this. Please note that if the deduction was to a third party you might want to double-check that the process is the same in your situation with the ATO or an accounting advisor for your specific situation.
