How to correct the date on a payroll

Once the date is entered and submitted it cannot be edited and the payroll cannot be deleted. The payroll check date can only be edited if no check numbers have been assigned. If in step 6 there are no check numbers assigned you can change the check date.

You will need to go to Step 6 in the payroll and void or delete any checks that have been created.  Then go to Step 9 and close the payroll.  Once done, you can create a new payroll with the correct date.  The old payroll will remain in the system, but it will have no impact on reporting or accumulations.
