Since the accrual process is manual and accrual percentages can vary each pay cycle, one option is to use a SmartList > Account Transaction query. Enter the journal entry number of the payroll entry that will be used for the accrual calculations into the search criteria and then send the results to Excel. In Excel you can calculate the accrual amounts based on the percentage of days to be accrued. Your Excel sheet will be your source and support for the accrual journal entry. You can go one step further and create a Quick Journal template for your accrual entries so that you don't have to look up and select all of the individual accounts for the entry each time. Please send me an email if you have any questions, want further instruction or would like to explore other alternatives based on the way your payroll is entered. Thanks.
