If you have not printed checks and posted, you will not need to void the check, but merely make the necessary adjustment to the payroll input file using add/change/delete input transactions option on the P/R processing menu and re-run the register if applicable.
If posted then the following steps will be necessary.
1. Start a new pay period and add the exact check you want to void that you have already posted.
2. In the Void check flag field at the top of the screen, enter a capital letter "V" . Double check that all transactions on this screen exactly match those that were originally entered for the check. Correct as
necessary. Exit the option and return to the processing menu.
3. Run the Payroll Register. Verify that the correct total are reflected as negative. (If they are wrong, correct them with Add/Change/Delete Input Transactions option or override input transactions.
Note: Many times medicare/FICA is off by one cent. On the payroll register this is a single figure. FICA is .81% of the calculated figure, medicare is the remaining balance. This will need to be fixed by overriding input transactions
4. When they are correct, use the option on P/R Processing menu, post current period totals and post.
5. If you need to re-run the correct payroll amounts, simply start a new pay period in the payroll module using the date of the original pay period and enter the corrected employees information.
Then follow the normal payroll check process.
