How do I reverse an entire payroll that has been posted. We accidentally ran a payroll and posted it twice and they are all direct deposits so I can't void the checks. There has got to be a way to do this. Can I run a negative payroll? thanks!

I'm going to assume you're using v 11.55.

You don't need a check number to void in Payroll. When you select the Void Check function of Payroll, you are given the option to select a RANGE of dates or enter check number. If you enter a range of dates, you'll get the list of checks or direct deposits done during that date range.

Just select the duplicates, then click the Finish button. The system will then create the VOID entries. Post the payroll, and the Payroll totals will be adjusted, and fund accounting transactions will be created to reverse the accounts credited/debited.

Post Fund Accounting, and the system will be totally corrected.
