Hi,

If an employee receives a travel allowance in the form of all travel expenses paid with company petrol card, how do I put this on the payslip?

Say the employee spent R1,000 on petrol. I put the R1,000 under 5501 (Income) and then under code 6026 80% of this value is prepopulated (Benefits). But now, I don't want to pay this R1,000 to the employee, as he receives it when putting petrol in with the petrol card (otherwise I would be duplicating this payment).

How do I now "deduct" the R1,000 so that he still gets taxed on the R800, but the R1,000 does not form part of his net pay?

Please advise.
