[GNC] Payroll - basic

[J. Richard Herbert]

Thanks for keeping this going.

What I see is that vouchers work great for expense vouchers, but the 
also can work great for payroll while providing a paystub by using a 
saved report to print the payroll voucher as a paystub. For the paystub 
to be a professional looking, there needs to be a few minor tweaks to 
Gnucash so that a saved a Paystub Report can be used with a voucher to 
function for payroll - including using duplication of a previously 
posted payroll voucher to quickly handle payroll. Large companies have 
dedicated payroll systems, but small companies still use an all-in-one 
program [Gnucash] to handle their bookkeeping and payroll.

Who does the RFE?
