Thanks William,
I have Payroll working using Employee Vouchers without needing to tweak
anything program-ways... using off-the-shelf choices for reports and
printing reports. I can share it, but each time I attach a file or paste
in a snapshot, they do not end up in the Gnucash-user Digest. I have
again pasted the pay slip and attached it as a pdf to this email - in
case it gets through.
For those who can see the Pay slip attachment, the deductions and
remittances are going to their Short Term liability accounts to later
submit to the federal government. I put a pay advance deduction in to
let people know that if you create a short Asset like Wage Advance with
the employee's name, then having originally entered the advance as a
positive item in a voucher or directly in a checking account, the pay
advance can be deducted from the pay check using the same short term
asset Wage advance account. This is something that most small businesses
need to track as they give themselves drawings from their
sole-proprietor business but then later need to balance it into a
payroll for themselves.
I actually do not need to do inventory. However that said, I do not see
a problem if I need to have a small amount of inventory items. After
all, whether Sage, Quickbooks, or another program, they all run using
the same basic bookkeeping principles with assets, liabilities, income,
expenses, etc. But yes, there is no point in running a retail store's
inventory with Gnucash.
Thanks everyone, Richard

later that although you can theoretically manage inventory using gnc
I don't know of anyone that has managed to do it efficiently as part
of a business. If your inventory management and payroll issues add
up maybe gnc isn't the software for you. Do you need something like
Odoo as suggested? Probably not, there is another tier below. Let
us know how you are getting on."

screenshot there? If so, it did not come through. You can't paste it
inline, it has to be an attachment. Please resend."
