Hi folks,
We provide company-paid GTLI, and we've set up a Pay Type (QB Online) to report the imputed taxable benefit on paychecks and W2s. The problem is that these amounts are showing up in our Gross Salary expense account, yet they're not true expenses. Someone may receive $4.50 worth of life insurance each month, which is taxable, but we're not actually paying anyone that $4.50 (we are paying the premiums, but that expense is tracked differently). The result is that our QB Gross Salary expense does not reflect the true salary being paid out of our bank account. It's a pain to adjust this every year. Is there a different way to set up GTLI so this doesn't happen?

I understand the importance of having the correct salary being paid out reflected in your bank account and the Gross Salary expense account, ryanowens1.
Yes. In QuickBooks Online, there is a different way to avoid the GTLI showing under the Gross Salary expense account.
Do you have a separate account that you want to use to track the GTLI? If so, I'm here to assist you in setting this up in QuickBooks Online.
