Pay salaries from a bank account (salary payment run)
Quick answerIn MAJA Books go to Payroll → Salary Payables, set the Pay date and the Bank, tick the open payables to pay and click Pay selected; MAJA posts one journal (Dr 2200 Salaries Payable per employee / Cr bank), marks the records PAID and makes the WPS SIF available for that run.
Before you start
- Post the month's payroll from MAJA Payroll (Payroll history → Post month).
- Add your bank account in MAJA Books (Bank & Cash).
Steps
- Open MAJA Books and click Payroll in the left menu.
- Click Salary Payables.
- Set the Pay date.
- Choose the Bank.
- Tick the payables to pay, or tick the box in the header to select all.
- Click Pay selected and confirm.
What MAJA does for you
- One run is one journal: Dr 2200 Salaries Payable for each employee / Cr the bank — the same shape as the WPS transfer.
- A payment voucher is added to the register, and each record gets a PAID chip in MAJA Payroll's history.
- The run gets a reference you can pick in the toolbar to make its WPS SIF file.
- Retrying the same selection on the same date never pays twice.
Good to know
- Only payroll records posted from MAJA Payroll appear; unposted ones are counted at the bottom of the list.
- An employee without an IBAN, a bank routing code or a labour card number is refused before any money moves: "Not paid — the WPS bank file could not carry: …". Add the details in MAJA Payroll → Employees, or untick them.
- A pay date inside a locked period is refused.
- Final settlements are paid on the Settlements tab with Pay.
