How to record salary expense in quickbooks online?

Hi All,

 

Please guide that how to record salary expense in quickbooks online? On random search, I found two ways to execute the salary payment in quickbooks online: 1. By recording Expense and 2. By Journal Entry. Also guide which is the best practice and the detailed steps of the same. Or there  is any other/3rd way for this?

 

As I am new here, please move my post to correct link/area/community if its wrongly posted here. Note that I am using QuickBooks online 30 days trial version with country as "International" (because the list of countries doesn't contain Pakistan)

 

Regards,

Abdul Rehman.

Hello there, abr_ora,

 

Since the payroll function is unavailable in QuickBooks Online International, you can record it manually as a journal entry.

 

You'll learn on how to do it on this article: Recording payroll transactions manually. The scenario and detailed steps will help you understand the process.

 

You might also want to check with an accountant if you have a complex payroll setup.

 

I'll be here if you have more questions about QuickBooks.
