Hi Tony,

That all makes perfect sense -  so have you "loaned" the money to cover the 
time you are away directly to an employee? (ie into someone else's personal 
account)

I'm trying to understand what you mean by "transferred from savings to Staff 
Account" in your OP.

But yes, it seems to me in summary you want the Staff Account to be an asset - 
if there is unused money at the end of your trip in the Staff Account it will 
be returned to you, just as if you put it in some other temporary bank account 
(or notes in a shoe bux under the bed!)   Expenses txns then go from the new 
asset account to the expense accounts, very much as you do at present.

Maf.
