Hello,
As per the standards, expense for the total Salary Paid is booked via single Journal Entry.
Dr. Salary Expense … XXXX
Cr. Bank/Cash account… XXXX
If you want to bifurcate salary expense based on Project, then you should do the following.
- Create Project
- Create New Journal Entry as below:
Dr. Salary Expense … XXXX …Project XYZ
Cr. Salary Expense … XXXX
Dr. Salary Expense … XXXX …Project ABC
Cr. Salary Expense … XXXX
On the same lines, you can also use Cost Center, and create separate Journal Entry to distribute Salary Expense into various Cost Centers.
Hope this helps.
