Thanks Derek, 

That makes sense.  I understand the process for accounting for payroll 
within GC - just wanted to check that Business -> Employees wasn't some 
sort of clever (undocumented) way to produce year-end reports for each 
employee's deductions etc.


One question though - I am familliar with the A/P and A/R functionality - 
can I set up tax tables for employees too? 

EG an employee uses her personal credit card for some business purchase. 
This purchase needs reimbursing, but also when I record it I want to split 
the VAT out - just like in the A/P new bill entry process.  

Or is the intention more like: employee submits a [daily | weekly | monthly] 
expenses claim and then that is recorded as a n-line split transaction?

OK - 2 questions!


If I get sufficently up to speed on this section, I'll try to write some 
draft docs for possible inclusion in the concepts guide.
