How worker payments count in your expenses

A worker's payment is one expense of its full amount. Buying them an item or paying out their savings is not a second one.

  1. A payment of 100,000 split into 60,000 cash, 15,000 kept as savings and 25,000 off an item is one expense of 100,000.
  2. Buying the item is not an expense on its own, and neither is paying the savings back out — the wage already counted that money.
  3. Book it the other way? In Settings → Farm, turn on Count items bought for workers as an expense, or Count savings paid out to workers as an expense.
  4. With either switch on, the wage leaves out that part, so the money is still counted once — on the purchase or the payout instead.
