Yes fees are accounted for by crediting to 01-1140 and debiting to expense account. Like you said, multiple deposits.

on line contributions

We enter all of the on line contributions at month end. Normally these are just posted to contributions as the amount often disagrees with what the vendor actually put in the bank.

Re: beginning balances

Thank you for your insight Neil. The only problem seems to be that when the new system was set up, the correct starting date of December was not used. Is there a fix to this now other than contacting technical support?

Re: beginning balances

Re: beginning balances

fica taxe error

For unknown reasons, an earlier pay check processed for the pastor had fica taxes taken out, and it was not caught. I have corrected the maintain item description which had apparently gotten checked incorrectly. Do I just void and redo the check in payroll to correct the issue. Thanks.

Re: 941 issues

" Employee Contributions to an IRA are pre-tax contributions; this income will be taxed when its withdrawn. in another section, " The employee deductions are subject to SS & Medicare." does the first sentence only refer to fed withholding?
