Are you paying these amounts by setting up an invoice in Payables?  If so, you can force Sage to leave them in the WSIB or Source Deductions accounts on the balance sheet by changing the invoice date to the first day of the next month instead of the last day of the pay period or the last day of the prior month.

Thanks for your reply.

All accounts are set up as linked accounts to payroll on the balance sheet - and payroll expenses on the income statement - so when i do a payroll entry the amounts are automatically posted to these accounts

When I make payments on a monthly and quarterly basis these payments are paid in the payments journal under the "pay remittance" drop down choice.  This has clear options to choose End of Remitting Period so the payment matches what is owing for the period being paid.

I have been doing this for years and years with no issue.

For example - upon payment in the past entry would be on the date of payment ie April 30th for March 31st quarter
WSIB Payable  $xxx
Bank                            $xxx

Now Sage is generating on March 31
WSIB Payable  $xxx
Accounts Payable                          $xxx

And then is generating for payment date April 30
Accounts Payable    $xxx

Bank                                            $xxx

How do I stop this - I want my WSIB and three source accounts listed on the Balancesheet at all times not transfer to accounts payable at the end of the month.

Can I ask why you do not want them inside the payables?

#1 Because I send business owners a balance sheets once a month and this information is wanted by them where it is easy to see the obligation for these accounts.  #2 I have been using Sage/Simply Accounting since 1996 and I have always reported these items on my balance sheets and set up Sage to show them on the balance sheet and never asked Sage to transfer them to payables at the end of a calendar month when I make a payment the previous month.

Thanks
