Hi AEH2
Currently AccountRight doesn’t allow for specific wage amounts to be paid in specific accounts for a user. This does mean you’d be looking at having to either do it manually through your internet banking portal or through this workaround:
In terms of doing it within the software, if you were using bank files to make the payments, the only way youd be able to do it would be to record the normal pay with their normal bank account in the payment details and create the bank file for that transaction
Then the allowance would need to be paid, and this would involve updating the bank account details on the card to the other account, recording the payment and creating the bank file to the new account. You’ll also have to remember to reenter the bank account back to the original account once you’ve finished paying the allowance
