Debit and credit in balance sheet accounts

[Former Member]

I have a GL account for accrued leave balance amount (Liability account/Balance Sheet).

Every year the leave balance amount is calculated and credited to this accont (debit being the employee cost /Expense account).

Now, I want to do a payout for a portion of the accumulated leave balance and debit the accrued leave balance account crediting the payroll clearing account (again a balance sheet account).

A WT has been created and assigned to the accrued leave balance account and debit.

However, the payroll posting does not accept debit and credit balance sheet account, even though the transaction is perfectly alright financially.

Can anyone guide me how I can offset by accrued liability account while making the payment.
