Right on target. I my self don't know yet how GnuCash stores the
information into each account. But it would be nice if there was a form
to fill out while performing payroll that resembled a time clock or
pay-stub format (Once hours were entered all the calculations are
preformed).
Of course the other options would include strait salaries and
commissions. But these would be definable at the time of employee
Creation/Hire.
There are two major occurrences of payroll calculation.
1: performing the actual paycheck calculation.
2: Then reporting the totals for the quarterly tax return.
FOr my own purposes, I accumulate tax liabilities throughout the period
and with a couple of reports can determine both my outstanding tax
liabilities and labor expenses (used to calculate FICA, and MCare, among
others. WHat I can't get is units of work (hours in this case) and there
would have to be some method of recording that as some taxes are $x.xx
per hour as opposed to a percentage.
Payroll taxes could be members of the Tax class and still be different
from regular sales and income taxes. However Payroll taxes for the us
will be accounted on a quarterly basis with the IRS form 941.
I myself am very rusty on c but here's a shot. And I haven't the
experience with any GUI's except Perl::Tk and html.
I have used Derek Atkins's _gncEmployee class as a template for this
Example:
struct _gncTax
{
char * id;
char * taxName; /* Medicare, SSI, Sales,..etc */
char * taxType; /* Payroll, Payroll, Sales */
char * taxCatagory;/* Employee, Salary, Sale */
gnc_numeric taxRate; /* .0145, .062, .893 */
gnc_numeric taxFrequency; /* hourly, monthly, unit */
is this -----------^ used to store what unit the tax is calculated on or
how often the tax is accumulated? IOW where do you store information as
what the tax is applied to?
gnc_commodity * currency;
gboolean active;
char * language;
Account * tax_acc;
};
