Help - New Job Advice needed please

[aat geek]

Hi,

I have just started a new job and am currently reconciling the payroll journals and have found that the previous person never entered any of the PAYE, NI and Gross wage entries for the year, only the net pays.

Do you think that the best thing to do is enter each of the corresponding entries as opening balances?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

I think you would be best to explain your findings and recommendations to your line manager.

There may be a explaination as to why? They must have posted PAYE as this would need to paid to HMRC.
