Hi, I'm new to this site, but have been reading it recently and learning. I started working for a restaurant and so I have to post in Sage the takings and the payroll. As I am not sure how to post the payroll journal, I have been just making bank payments using Nominal code 7003 instead. How does it work in the end? Also, the takings, I have been invoicing my fake customers, as there are 4 types of Sales, and it seems to work. Any comments will be appreciated. Maria
Debit gross wages -usually in the 6000 or 7000 range
Debit employers NI -again in similar range
Credit both ees and Ers NI and tax deducted -usually 2220
Credit net pay -usually 2210
The net pay would then go as a payment through the bank to the nominal code 2210 to balance the account back to zero
The same applies when you pay the paye over -the payment should debit the 2220 account to zero this as well
Yes, thank you. Will do that from now on. Very helpful.
As for the cash sales, the takings? shall I continue posting as invoices to fake customers?

Is there a reason you cant just do cash receipts to 4 separate sales codes? Seems a bit of a faff going through customers, if no invoice is actually issued?
