Teacher salaries and linked expenses

TuitionDesk keeps paid teacher salaries and operating expenses synchronized so the same payment is not entered twice.

Record a teacher salary

1. Open Teacher Salaries.
2. Choose the month and year, then click Add Record.
3. Select the teacher and enter the base amount, bonus, deductions, and optional notes.
4. When Analytics is available, selecting a teacher may suggest a bonus from weak-student conversions (you still confirm the amount).
5. Click Create Salary Record.

The salary is recorded as paid on the current date. TuitionDesk automatically creates exactly one linked expense using the Salary category and the net amount. It includes the teacher name, salary month, payment method, and a salary reference.

Where to check

Open Expenses and select the payment month. The row is labelled Managed by salary. Edit or delete the salary record rather than changing that expense directly.

Corrections and deletion

Changing the salary amount, deductions, bonus, payment date, notes, or payment method updates the same linked expense. Moving a salary out of Paid status removes it from active expenses; marking it Paid again restores the same expense without creating a duplicate. Deleting the salary record also removes its linked expense from active expense reports.

Plans

This synchronization is part of the existing Teacher Salaries and Expenses workflow. It does not add a separate plan feature or require another admin plan setting.
