An employee bought an item from the company and wants the payment taken out of their paycheck. I have created the invoice, an account in Chart of accounts, as well as a payroll item, but I'm not sure how to connect the money I took out of his paycheck to the invoice. I'm thinking a GE, but not very skilled with those.

Hi doorsystem,

 

Thanks for reaching out here.  Recording your transactions accurately in QuickBooks Online is key in keeping your books aligned.  I'd be happy to provide more information so you're on the right track with your work!

 

Setting up an employee as a customer is done when they're paying the invoice with their own funds.  However, when it's set up as a deduction through QuickBooks Online Payroll, you'll need to create a Journal Entry in order to apply the deduction to the invoice.  In this situation, I recommend reaching out to your accountant for their expertise.  If you don't have an accountant, we can help you locate a ProAdvisor in your local area.

 

Please feel free to reach back out if you have other questions.  We're always glad to help!
