Garnishment Fee

Create a deduction item and mark it as Garnishment fee

"What is the easiest way to account for this? "

Make the Wage Garnishment Deduction item and that is linked to Payroll Liability.

Make another one and that is linked to Your Income account, instead of Liability.

You do it with Two Lines.

Thank you.

What if the courts sent you the processing fee and we have chosen not to charge our employee. For example they sent us $25.00 to get the process started.  Is this put against Misc Income? My predecessor did these 2 different ways - Misc Income and Payroll Labor deposits..
