Moving payroll liabilities to group 25

The Slovenian chart-of-accounts framework 2024 puts payroll liabilities in group 25. VegaERP used to post them to accounts 2300 to 2350 in group 23, which is meant for advances received. New payroll runs now post to:

Liability	Before	Now
Net wages	2300	2510
Employee contributions	2310	2539
Employer contributions	2320	2580
Income tax withheld	2330	2540
Compulsory health contribution (OZP)	2350	2538

VegaERP does not change payroll runs that were already posted. What is still open on the old accounts you can pay as before, or move in one click.

Move the open liabilities

In the left menu, open Računovodstvo (Accounting) and then Kontni načrt (chart of accounts).
If liabilities are still open on the old accounts, the top of the page shows the box Obveznosti za plače na starih kontih (payroll liabilities on the old accounts). It lists each old account with its new account and the open amount.
Click Preknjiži v skupino 25 (transfer to group 25).

Check the journal entry

In the left menu, open Temeljnice (journal entries).
Open the newest entry described as “Preknjižba obveznosti za plače iz skupine 23 v skupino 25”.
Check that each old account is debited and its new account credited with the same amount.

The transfer is a new journal entry dated today. It does not change older entries, so closed periods stay as they are.

What success looks like

The box on the Kontni načrt page disappears, and the old accounts 2300 to 2350 have a zero balance. The whole payroll liability is on the group-25 accounts.

Common issues

I don’t see the box. No liabilities are open on the old accounts, or you are not an administrator or accountant.
The transfer is refused because the period is closed. Today’s date falls in a closed period. Open it on the Upravljanje obdobij (period management) page and try again.
The transfer is refused because of account 2510, 2538, 2539, 2540 or 2580. That account means something else in your chart. Renumber it, or confirm that it means the same thing.
A salary bank payment offers two accounts. Book the payment of a run filed before the change to the old account, and a newer one to the group-25 account.
