Previous Topic  Next Topic 


General Ledger allocations option for employees.  On the Payroll menu click Employees then select your employee then click on the general ledger tab.

Note: The General Ledger Accounts are created in your main Autosoft5 program - see this guide for details  - http://service.autosoft.com.au/entries/21512685-How-to-Create-and-Edit-General-Ledger-Accounts



In a moment you will complete the general ledger mapping for all your employees, but first lets familiarise ourselves with some of the elements of this table.

General Ledger - Wages, PAYG & Superannuation you will note that there are three combo boxes that can be populated.  Why are there three?  Depending on the complexity of your structure you may wish to show a split of an employees wages over multiple departments.  Take for example a General manger or Dealer principle, you may want to see their wage split over Parts, Service and Sales.  This three way split for Wages, PAYG and Superannuation gives you that flexibility.

Percentages You will see there are 3 text boxes which split the wage amounts over the respective general ledger accounts. 


Let's now setup our three employees in the following examples. 


Example 1


Let's first take Robert our parts driver, he works soley for the parts department so he will need his wages to be allocated 100% to parts. 



Example 2


Next let's look at Mark our parts and service manager, he requires his pay to be split evenly over the two departments that he works in.




Example 3

Gary the New Car Sales manager spends a Most of his time on New Car Sales 60%, 30% on Used Car Sales, and the balance of 10% he spends on management and administration. 


Once you have setup the GL Mapping for all your employees proceed to Step 15 - Opening Holiday and Sick Leave
