Payroll accruals
Overtime and UPS costs etc. for the 2019/20 should be accrued if you are aware of them, and know they will not make the above deadline dates. This does NOT apply to Grants.
In the GL, there are specific transaction codes that should be used for payroll expenses. The credit transaction code for an accrual is VBAK.
