Vacation owed, but Vacation Payable account at 0.00

Hi, 

I am at year end.  I ran the data integrity check & it showed an imbalance in Vac. owed.  We actually pay out vac with every pay check, so this is not owing.  I need to clear this up.

My main problem is the Vacation Payable account has a 0.00 balance.  

How do I clear this vac owed without doubling the vac owed, and without adding to the vac pay balance?

I looked back as far as the start of last fiscal year on the employees pay check.  It says this amount was carried over from 01/01/2014.  How did it not get cleared up at last fiscal year end?

Help Please!

    Hi Mirasong

    not sure if your issue has been resolved. if not try the following

    Unless you still in historical mode, where you can update the employee records historical tab to get rid of the balance; otherwise you have to effect the vacation payable account "somehow"

    Vacation owed is record in employee record, which means, it need post a cheque to update(i.e. zero all  amount in the cheque and post a negative vacation accrued amount to zero it out)

    (if you do this the cheque will update the employee record zero and also post the amount in vacation payable, so it would best if you change your vacation payable to  an offsetting account first then post the adjustment cheque, then change it link account back.

    1. backup data, change vacation payable account to an offsetting account .  2. post adjustment cheque, 3. change link account back  4. check integrity summary.
