Hi Team,
I’m currently experiencing a mismatch between the Salary Register** and the General Ledger for the Salary and Wages account in ERPNext.
Here’s the situation:
I processed payroll using the standard Payroll Entry feature.
- Salary Slips were generated and submitted automatically.
- After submission, **Journal Entries were automatically created and linked to the Payroll Entry.
- However, when I check the General Ledger, I notice that only a few JV entries are showing under the Salary and Wages account.
- On the other hand, the Salary Register total is much higher than what appears in the General Ledger for that account.
This leads me to believe that not all salary components or amounts are being properly posted to the GL, or they are being posted to another account I’m unaware of.
I’ve already checked:
- That all Salary Slips are submitted.
- That the Account Type for “Salary and Wages” is set correctly.
- That I’m comparing the same date range in both reports.
Can someone help me understand:
- Where the rest of the salary expense is being recorded in the GL?
- Is there any other account the system might be using by default for salary components?
- Is this a common issue due to incorrect account mapping in Salary Structures or Components?
Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
In Salary Register as showing below. See Gross Pay
See Balance of General Ledger
