You’ve calculated payroll and printed all of your payroll checks and now you realize that someone’s check is wrong. As long as you DID NOT send off any of your deductions checks (or online taxes), you can do one of the following to correct the problem paycheck.
IF YOU WANT TO RERUN JUST THE CHECKS THAT NEED TO BE CHANGED:
1. Uncalc Payroll
2. Make the changes that are needed in the Post journal and recommit.
3. Recalculate payroll.
4. Go into Payroll, Renumber Payroll Checks, and select the check that is bad. Enter the bad check as the Beginning and Ending Check number, then put in the next good check number for the NEW starting check number. If you have more than one person to change, or one person AND deduction checks, make sure to do them ONE AT A TIME, unless they are all in a row.
5. Print selected checks.
IF YOU WANT TO RERUN ALL YOUR CHECKS:
**ONLY DO THIS IF ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, AS AUDITORS DON’T USUALLY LIKE SETS OF VOIDED CHECKS**
1, Uncalculate the payroll
2. Make the changes that are needed in the Post journal and recommit.
3. Recalculate payroll starting with next good check.
Note, this procedure will leave you with an open set of checks, so if you run the beginning to ending numbers for a year for your auditor, they will see some missing. You will just need to explain this.
4. Print all new checks.
