To reverse a paycheck

Payroll > Paying employees > Changing, deleting and reversing paychecks > To reverse a paycheck

Warning: Use this procedure only if you're an advanced user of AccountEdge

Unlike other transactions, reversed paychecks affect a number of important records in your AccountEdge system. If you have a problem with a particular check, we strongly recommend that you delete, not reverse, the paycheck, and then create the paycheck again, if you need to do so.

To delete a paycheck, you first need to make your transactions changeable. See What are changeable and unchangeable transactions? to learn how to do this; then, when you're ready to learn how to delete the check, see To delete a paycheck.

1. The paycheck you want to reverse should be displayed. If you need help doing this, see To find a paycheck.
2. Choose Reverse Transaction from the Edit menu. A reversing entry will be created.
3. Click Record to record the reversal.
