Procedures showing the possibility of linking the payroll run to projects or cost centers.
Answer:
In the current system, the payroll run cannot be directly linked to a specific project or cost center. However, there is an alternative solution through which you can allocate payroll costs to two different accounts according to type:
-
Add Employee and Define Cost Type:
When adding an employee to the system, you can define the type of cost that will be charged to different accounts, whether it is a direct cost or indirect cost. -
Payroll Settings:
- Go to Settings and then to Payroll Settings.
- Select Payroll Components and click Edit next to it.
- You can choose a cost account for direct costs (such as project-specific salaries) and another account for indirect costs (such as general salaries).
-
Additional Notes:
- You must have dedicated accounting accounts in the chart of accounts to separate direct and indirect costs.
