What's your method for voiding a payroll check issued in a prior closed quarter?

If it's a replacement, I usually have them enter a negative AP check in manual check entry and reissue an AP check. It's a lot less work.

This is what I'm in the process of advising: Since the checks were all properly issued in the prior quarter -- and we paid payroll taxes -- I suggest that what you do is issue a regular check for the net as a replacement. Use a clearing account as the expense G/L. You will then have to make an adjusting journal entry to reverse the prior quarter check(s) - Debit the cash account originally used Credit the clearing account (this should wash out/match with the amount that you used for re-issuance) There is unfortunately no automated way to reverse out a payroll check when the quarter has been closed.

If I'm going to reissue the check then I would handle the void and reissue in the AP module. If the check is not going to be reissued or if there is a payroll change that is needed I would void and reissue in the payroll module in the current month.l From: support@socialcast.com [mailto:support@socialcast.com] On Behalf Of Wayne Schulz Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2011 5:19 AM To: Ron Gouveia Subject: [90 Minds Consulting Group] What's your method for voiding a payroll check issued in a prior closed quarter?
