Hi. Just trying to get my head around journal postings for pension contributions as throwing me out somewhere and getting myself in a muddle. Am I right in thinking:
DR
Gross pay minus salary sacrifice
Employers NI
CR
Net Wages (2220)
PAYE (2210)
ER/EE NI (2211)
Student Loan (2212)
Union Dues (2231)
Employee Personal Pension Contributions (Do I post this to a control code or one of the 7000 ones?) Is there another journal needed for the salary sacrifice payments?
I presume you are using sage codes? I don't use sage so I am guessing. Pension contribution made by Salary sacrifice are posted in the same way "Employers Pension contributions" would be posted - One would be a expense account and the other would be the pension control account, which the pension payment would be posted against to clear/reconcile
