I need to do a journal for below, please could someone tell me if this is what I need to do in Sage?
The director is owed salary so I need to do a journal to reflect this so in Sage do I go to Company then new journal then do a debit to the Directors salary and a credit to directors loan?
That would work if there is no tax and NI to account for, however under RTI rules the payment should be made I would have thought, at least I haven't heard of any concessions for directors. I would be interested if others know of any since I have sent out letters to all owner managed company clients telling them to set up a standing order for payment of salary (typically £641!) to be made at the end of the month so they adhere to RTI rules.
Ive had to put one of my clients wage to the Director Loan a couple of times, when there has been no cash to pay it. I viewed it as paid but lent to the company
