That sounds like an accrual situation.
If they are consistently owing you, then use an asset account.
If you are consistently owing them, use a liability account.
You could name it 'Payroll Rounding Accrual' or something similar.
If the rounding bounces back and forth between asset and liability, then
just pick one. If it ever ends up in the opposite normal sign for the
balance, then you know at that point in time, it is a reverse balance
account and effectively the other 'type'. This matters little from
paycheck to paycheck, and probably doesn't even matter on an annual
basis either.

Hello everyone,
my netpay each month is rounded up to the next integer. This
rounding in my paycheck is indicated under the voice "Actual rounding" then it
is
charged in the paycheck of the following month under the voice "Previous
rounding" and the netpay, in turn, rounded up to the next integer again.
Thus my net pay is gross pay minus deductions minus the amount of the "Previous
rounding".
How would you record "Previous Rounding" and "Actual Rounding"?
I'd be inclined to use these accounts plus what is needed to calculate the
rounding:
Assets:Bank1:Checking €
Income:Salary
Expenses:Taxes:State €
Expenses:Taxes:Regional €
Expenses:Taxes:Municipal €
Expenses:Taxes:Social Security €
Assets:Bank1:Checking
