wages for temp and flex staff

Question asked by RIchard M Ellerker 1 day ago

I have 2 or 3 staff that work 4-8 hours a week flexibly, paid in cash for what they work. I don't run a payroll as they are all under the thresholds of any HMRC limits. How can I record this as an expense specifically?

Hi Richard,

As you are paying your staff in cash and not through a formal payroll system, you can record these payments as manual expenses. To do this, please follow these steps:

  1. On your Dashboard, click the Manually record expenses button.

  2. In the table that appears, enter the date the payment was made.

  3. Under the Contact column, you can select an existing contact or click Add to create a individual or generic contact for your staff payments.

  4. Provide a brief description, such as Weekly staff cash payment, and enter the total amount paid.

  5. In the Account field, select the Salaries account code. This ensures the cost is correctly categorised in your financial reports.

  6. Select an option in the Paid From dropdown.

  7. Click Save.
