I would create a new nominal code for SMP/SPP Recovered, near to the Wages accounts in the P&L, credit that and debit PAYE.
Personally, I see SMP as employee wages that the Government are paying.
I'd just knock it off wages.
It depends what you want to achieve.
I am glad it is not just me. I just had to book a £3k SMP reclaim.
I couldn’t work out where the other side of the receivable went since the previous accountant never booked it, the Director said she had been paid it, it agreed to the RTI submissions from a few years ago so I did Dr PAYE debtor Cr Director salary.
Does anyone think it should go as Director salary in the accounts or a separate line as SMP funding? Thanks
It doesn’t matter. I only separate it to make it easier to reconcile the payroll for audit, but if you haven’t many staff just reduce Salaries.
