CAUTION: Changing the Payroll Month from the PR Settings manually causes incorrect balances on the employee totals. It could require an expert to reconcile the differences.
You can’t reopen a month in Payroll. However, the software updates the Payroll module based on the check date and others based on the accounting date. The entries will go to the proper locations based on the dates. Don’t close the month again until you catch up to the correct date.
NOTE: You’ll get a warning for printing checks, generate direct deposit, and manual checks until you're caught up.
You can restore the entire company folder from a backup to revert the month to the prior period. This reverts your entire company data to an earlier date. You'll have to recreate any entries done since you made the backup.
You can also restore a backup to another location for reporting purposes only. Don't create entries in this folder. Add the company to the Open Company list and remove it after printing your reports.
