Payroll to Ledger
Agree the payroll register to the payroll cost in the ledger, month by month.
- Ledger + payroll register
- Key analysis in Payroll
How the result is read
Every payroll test samples from the register, so the register is first agreed to the ledger: gross pay to salaries and bonuses, employer contributions to the social-security cost, month by month so a missing or duplicated run shows in its own month. Where the ledger’s payroll lines carry the employee, only those are compared, which keeps year-end accruals (no employee) out of a comparison of payroll runs.
In the application
Payroll to Ledger is filed under Payroll, index letter H. "Run all analyses" runs it with every other analysis the ledger and the documents loaded can answer. The worksheet states the population it tested on its face — or "Not applicable" with the reason when a column it depends on is empty — and the Excel workbook the engagement exports files it under H, beside an index of the source files with their SHA-256 fingerprints.
