Greetings

When I track all my income deductions (taxes, other employment
deductions or Zinzen in your case) I use something like:

2015/07/29      WoGene Muenchen
           Income: WoGene: salary                   Euro -1234.56
(This number is the gross number)
           Expense: WoGene: Zinzen                 Euro   275.32
           Expense: WoGene: Krankenkasse     Euro   456.32
           Asset: BankkontoChecking1              Euro  - 502.92
(This number is the actual amount deposited)

I have an expense account for every type of payroll deduction.
This way I can track the amount of all my payroll deductions easily.
