Wages missing from P&L

Hi 

I have run my profit and loss but my wages are missing from the report.  They are in as expenses but do not show up.  Am I missing something?

Thanks

Hello @HilaryB,

 

Let's check to see if you have the wage account listed as a sub-account in your payroll expense. Let me walk you through how.

 

  1. Go to Accounting.
  2. Select Chart of Accounts.
  3. In the Filter by name or number field, type "payroll expense" and verify if you have a wage account from the list.
  4. Check the account is an expense account and not a liability account.

 

Once verified, go back to your Profit and Loss report and change your Report period to include the paycheck date. Then, check the wage account again.

Please contact our Payroll Support Team if you're using a different payroll type so we can assist you further.

 

  1. Click (?) Help. Then, Contact Us.
  2. Type a brief description of your issue in the What can we help you with? field.
  3. Select Let's talk. Then, Start a chat.

As always, you can visit our page about employees and payroll for some helpful articles for your future tasks.

 

I'll be here to lend a helping hand if you have other questions or concerns. Feel free to post anytime. Cheers!
