We paid for an employee expense, so the transaction was marked as an expense in our books. Then the expense was paid back by the employee by means of a deduction from their paycheck. We do not use QB payroll, we use a different company. I want to record the deduction transaction back to the expense so that our P&L is accurate, but we do the Cash method of accounting, so I do not have a live transaction to record and if I enter a journal entry, it wants to take the funds from a bank account, but it did not come from a bank account, we simply paid the employee less the deduction. How do I enter the deduction or resolve this in our books?
