View the Payroll Payment Journal Entry!

When you record a salary payment in Wafeq, the system automatically creates a journal entry that reflects the payment in accounting terms.

As shown in the image:

  • The Payroll Payable account is debited, because the company is settling its liability; this means the amount owed to the employee is now cleared.
  • The selected Bank Account is credited, because this is the actual source of payment, which reflects that the money has been paid out.

This entry ensures the company’s liabilities are reduced correctly, and the payment is recorded through the appropriate account.

Note:

The credited account shown in the journal entry is the one you selected during the payment process; it represents the actual account the salary was paid to. In most cases, this is a bank account, but it can be any account that fits your accounting setup.
