Payroll linked accounts

Question

I'm using SAGE 50 Premium 2015.3, multi-user (4 users). I set up two new payroll income accounts (mileage reimbursement and telephone allowance). Neither of these are working properly. These incomes revert to Wage Expense, even though in the Linked Accounts section of the setup menu, they are quite clearly linked to the expense accounts mentioned previously. In the payroll ledger, the incomes display and show a checkmark and amount for the employees in question. Can anyone explain why these accounts do not link to the correct account. 
 Thank you -- appreciate the help,

The expense groups option is not turned on. The mileage reimbursement is set as "reimbursement". The telephone allowance is set as "income". Does it make a difference with the type of income? 
 
Appreciate the assistance,

Please check if you are using Expense Groups. This can be found in Setup> Settings>Payroll>Linked Accounts>Expense Groups 
 Your employee(s) may be setup under different expense groups
