reimbursement to employee

Hi all I have deducted an amount from an employees pay for new workshirts because he has left. He has since returned the shirts how and where do I enter the reimbursement.

What account did you link the Deduction Payroll Item to? Enter a Write Chq to the Employee name, posting directly back to that account (no tax code)

posted in other payroll items-deduction for uniforms [in pay cheque] Do I then write a chq to employee to uniforms in expenses?

What account was the deduction actually linked to though (in your Chart of Accounts) ?

If it was linked to Uniforms expense account then yes, Create a Write Cheque to the employee (you may get a prompt not to pay employees via this method but this isn’t a “Paycheque” because it’s a reimbursement, so if so, just disregard that)

Allocate it to the Uniforms expense account (with NO tax code) 😁

Account is listed as deduction for uniforms in payroll items under -Payroll Liabilities to Other Current Liabilities. I don't see how it can be linked to Uniforms expense account when its a liability

It doesn't get linked to an expense account automatically - I thought you meant the deduction had gone to a Uniforms expense account. Post the reimbursement back to whichever account the deduction went to (in this case, the Uniforms Current Liability subaccount) as they will cancel each other out.
