Each department is a different restaurant. In Dept Maint the Tip Deduction (code 1) is given the same GL as the Gross Wage acct in the Accrual Acct field to reduce the wages by the Tips paid. The Dept and Labor code is changed during PR Data Entry when an empl works at a different restaurant, the Tips Reported go to the correct Wage Exp(debit) for the different Dept, but the Tip Deduction(credit) posts to the home departments Tip Deduction Accrual account. So the home dept wages are understated and the second Dept is overstated.

Since it's the Labor Code that has the Gross Wage GL#, it seems the only solution is to assign the Tip Deduction Accrual Credit account in the Labor Code Maint. Each Department has multiple Labor Codes, so the Dept# in PR Data Entry could (will) be different than what the Labor Code has.
