How do I correctly move PR to correct category?

I just discovered an error in our PR. Our DRE (Director of Religious Education) has been paid correctly. However, the former admin chose RE Hourly Wages as a PR Item rather than DRE Salary so our budget line items are incorrect.

Can I correct with a Journal Entry or will I need to void and reissue checks in the correct category? W-2's were correct at year end. However, our fiscal year (7/1-6/30) is screwed up.

Any advice will be most appreciated.

You can correct this by entering a direct transaction from Funds Accounting. Just debit the correct account and credit the incorrect account for the amount in question. Then go into Payroll and adjust the SALARY Item Description for the DRE to point to the correct expense account.
