Maintain the account numbers and descriptions used by Payroll when referring to General Ledger accounts. This is Payroll's account reference list; it does not maintain General Ledger balances.
Using this option
- Choose File > Chart of Accounts to open the account list.
- Use the maintenance screen to add an account or select an existing account to edit. Enter the Account and Description, then save the record.
- Use the same account numbering as the ledger to which payroll will be posted. Review the descriptions so accounts can be identified accurately in payroll setup.
Fields and options
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Account | Up to 12 characters identifying the General Ledger account. |
| Description | Up to 50 characters describing the account. |
Notes
Changing this list does not create a transaction or change a posted ledger balance. Before removing an account, check whether payroll setup still refers to it.
