I have an employee that entered two counter sales transactions for herself on Account (A/R). What transaction(s) do I need to make to deduct this AR from her paycheck?

Thanks for reaching out to us, TStone1503.

 

From the Payroll Item List, you can create a payroll item deduction and add it to your employee.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Click Lists at the top menu and choose Payroll Item List.
  2. From the Payroll Item drop-down, click New.
  3. Select Custom Setup and hit Next.
  4. Enter the deduction's name and click Next again.
  5. Follow the on-screen instructions until you reach Finish.

 

You can then assign the payroll item to the specific employee to deduct the appropriate amount from their paycheck.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu, then select Employee Center.
  2. Select the appropriate employee, then click the Edit pencil icon.
  3. Go to the Payroll Info tab, then add the Employee Purchases payroll item in the Additions, Deductions and Company Contributions section.
  4. Enter the amount of the purchase and OK once done.

 

Once you already deducted it, you can use the Receive Payment to pay the invoice.
