We just started tracking our Accrued Vacation as an expense and liability. Per our Accountant, we manually load the Accrued Vacation balances each month with a debit to Vacation Expense and a credit to Accrued Vacation. Per our Accountant again, we need to post a debit to the Accrued Vacation Liability and credit to Cash each time Vacation Wages are posted through payroll. Wages are set in QB to only post to expense accounts though.
I'm trying to avoid having to do a journal entry to move Vacation Wages from the expense account to the liability account each pay period. Is there any way to post directly to the liability through payroll?
I just spent an hour on the phone with support who recommended changing my liability account to an expense account to resolve the issue and did not understand why that didn't actually solve the issue.
