Transmittals - Journal

In payroll transmittals, the journal refers to the place where the journal entry will be made in the general ledger. In some organizations, payroll transmittals are recorded in the CDPT (Cash Disbursements for Payroll Transmittals). However, your organization may use a different name for the CDPT journal.

  • Net pay (actual amount paid to employees)
