The payroll expense section in the "profit and loss detail" changed to gross pay only and does not show net pay.

Previously when we looked at profit and loss detail, the payroll expense deducted all tax deductions and only showed net pay. Then something happened and it only shows gross pay.

It should be gross pay + the employer's share of payroll taxes.

You can see the payroll tax deductions in the payroll liability account(s) and on reports.

They aren't an expense.  Let's say you pay someone $500 gross -- that is payroll expense.  The deductions for federal & state income taxes and fica & medicare are posted to payroll taxes payable (a liability account).

That is what i've been reading through my research, but previously before today, it did add tax deductions before. It always showed the net pay instead of the gross pay previously.

On my P&L Expenses, the Net pay, the Gross pay and the taxes are shown and added in.
