I have 2 pay cheques that do not show up in the general ledger but when I look under the employee, they are there. How do I get them into the general ledger?

You can review the report filters, the bank account, and the payroll preferences to verify the reason behind the missing paycheques, albertenterprises. Let's go over them individually to display these transactions in the general ledger.

First, let's set the correct date range and filter accordingly to locate the paycheques. If they fall outside the specified date, they won't appear on the report. To verify, follow the steps below:

1. Go to the Reports menu on the left panel.
2. On the Search bar, enter General Ledger.
3. Select the Report period.
4. Click the Customize button to examine the filters selected.

Next, we can examine the Paycheque list and open one to see where the funds came from. Here's how to do that:

1. Go to the Payroll menu, then click the Employees tab.
2. Choose an employee, then navigate to the Paycheque list.
3. Pick a paycheque to view the details.
4. Note the account under the Paid from section.

Afterward, configure your payroll settings to confirm if the bank account showing on the paycheque is the same account you chose to record the entries. I'll show you how:

1. Go to the Gear icon, then select Payroll Settings.
2. Navigate to the Accounting section to Edit.
3. Check the Bank Account under the Paycheque and payroll tax payments to see if it matches.
