Hi,
This is my first post. Please let me know if I need to do something different.
I am a W2 employee and would like to set up a recurring entry to post my paycheck.
I set up the journal entry below, but it does not post automatically on date specific times. As you can see, I divide the it into multiple banks. The transactions show up each of my bank feeds, but I do not see the corresponding amount to choose for the respective bank which does not allow me to match the transaction to clear it for reconciliation purposes. Can someone please provide advice on how this is to done?
Payroll Journal Entry | ||
Debit | Credit | |
Bank Account # 1 | XX | |
Bank Account # 2 | XX | |
Bank Account # 3 | XX | |
401(k) Investment Account | XX | |
Federal Tax Expense | XX | |
Social Security Tax Expense | XX | |
Medicare Tax Expense | XX | |
State Tax Expense | XX | |
Local Tax Expense | XX | |
Gross Wages | XX | |
Holiday Wages | XX | |
PTO Wages | XX | |
Bonus Wages | XX |
Also, I have used the add a bank account in the configuration section of Accounting. I would expect that a new bank account would produce a specific chart of account entry, but it does not seem to do so. I have a distinct dashboard widget for the bank and I am able to obtain transactions but then they are muddled in the same account on my balance sheet. How do I set up a distinct balance sheet account for each bank. Coincidentally, I have the same problem when using adding a credit card too.
Next, why does an opening statement synchronization amount show up and how can I clear it for reconciliation purposes? Oddly, the amount increases when I fetch transactions.
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you in advance!!
