Hi
I have just picked up something which seems a bit of a catch-22…
When doing a Payroll Entry, a Payslip is generated. The payslip has a flied
for a Journal Entry. However, the journal Entry for the Salary has not yet
been created ( It is created from the Payrol Entry : top right : Make Bank Entry.
But yo cannto “Make a Bank Entry” , unless the Payslip has been submnitted.
And once the payskip has been submitted, yo cannot change the
Journal Entry field on the Payslip ???
You cannot make a Bank Entry unless the Payslip is submitted. Once the Payslip is submitted, the Journal Entry field becomes locked, preventing any changes to it.
And If you need to edit the Journal Entry after submission, you could consider creating a custom workflow or script to allow changes before finalizing everything.
Thank you @NCP. I understand and I agree with you completely.
I do however not understand the use-case for that journal-entry field in the
Salary slip under normal conditions. And by “normal conditions” I mean, using
that Journal Entry field without having to resort to custom scripting?
When I do payroll run then , I have a specific way and order in which I generate
the Payroll Entry, Salary Slip and Journal entries. This allows for cross-linking
of the documents to the Payroll Entry.
When I saw this Journal entry field, I thought I could use it somehow and also include
the salary-slip in the chain of linked documents ?
