Salaries are not paid Every month to all the employees. There is always pending salary. As and when we get payments, salaries are paid to some staff. Are we to pass a journal entry stating salaries a/c. dr to salaries payable to staff a/c every month and on making payment in the subsequent month, we make entry i.e. salary payable to cash. Is it okay or make a entry when only salary payment is made in cash. Then there will be one entry instead of two. Which is appropriate. Kindly guide

Yes, It is better to make entry first payable mode then paid.
By this way , you accounted gross salary a/c and net salary a/c of the employee in the safe manner. i.e if one person has taken advance. You can make entry
Salary Payable DR.
To advance to staff
to Cash / bank.
i.e you accounted full salary first, then deduct advance.
IF you make direct entry to salary to staff then it may create confusion, how much gross salary , how much deduction etc.
