Sales Commission setup
09/06/07 at 06:18:26
 
undecided   We have one saleman and are having difficulty setting payroll up for commissions.
 
I believe there are two places to setup for commissions:  
 
I have a Liability Account (38300) and an Expense Account (72075) for Commissions pay.  
 
1.  PR-M  (Payroll Defaults);  And I entered the expense account #72075 in the "Commission" field.
 
2.  
     A.   PR-A  Sales Rep under (Pay Categories) in the Exp/Liab Accts I entered the liability   account #72075 in the Commissions field.    
 
     B.   Under the same screen (User Defined Categories)   I entered a new item named Commission
and entered the Liability account #38300.
 
  Shocked What is happening is expense account 72075 seems to be getting double hit for expenses and liability account 38300 is not being cleared.  lips sealed  So what I have is obviously not correct.
 
Any help in getting the right setup would reallllly be wonderful!   Grin
 
Thanks

The commission module is posting the expense as commissions are accumulated.  Payroll should be paying off the liability.   All the payroll entries should be the 38300 account.  
 
When Commissions are posted either by posting sales invoices or enter customer payments (depending onthe CS-A setting), the expense account is debited and liability is credited.  When non-employee commissions are transferred to AP via CS-D, Commission Due Liability is debited and AP is credited.  When employee commissions are transferred to payroll, no GL posting occurs until the payroll check is processed, at which point it should debit the liability and credit cash.

Thank you so much for the quick answer Lynn.  So what I believe I need to do is change
PR- A  "Pay Categories" to Liability account # 38300, is that correct?  Then should PR-M be
liability or expense?  Again thanks so much!

PR-A and PR-M should both be the liability.
