- Select Lists, Employees & Payroll, Paychecks.
- Find and double-click to open the paycheck you need to edit.
- Click Delete.
- Recreate the paycheck with the correct dollar amounts in the fields in question.
- Print the check.
NOTE: If you have already issued the check, and cannot get it back from the employee, you will not be able to edit the paycheck. Instead, adjust the fields in question on a future paycheck. Alternatively, if you need to make an adjustment because it withheld too much from an employee field, create a supplementary paycheck. Enter the refund amount in the appropriate field, with no salary amount included.
