Payroll adjustment
Last month we had two employees that were paid at the incorrect rate. Because it wasn't caught until they had deposited their checks, we decided we would make an adjustment this month. What is the best way to do that? One was overpaid, one was underpaid.

Re: Payroll adjustment
Make the adjustment in the VERIFY PAYROLL screen, double click on their income item, and make the adjustment there. This should also recalculate any taxes, etc.GEBCbookkeeper wrote:Last month we had two employees that were paid at the incorrect rate.

Re: Payroll adjustment
Not totally following you - so last month employee A was overpaid by $94. How do I deduct that amount from this month's paycheck and still correctly reflect the hours worked and make sure the taxes are correct. Employee B was underpaid by $58.14 so, same question.NeilZ wrote:Make the adjustment in the VERIFY PAYROLL screen, double click on their income item, and make the adjustment there.

I saw in our records this happened once in the past and the previous bookkeeper added in the same amount of hours with the adjusted rate difference, which worked out for the income and taxes but caused the L&I hours to be wrong on our reports.

Re: Payroll adjustment
Just to make sure others know what I mean. When you double click on the Verify Payroll screen you can adjust the amount being paid, you can add or deduct.GEBCbookkeeper wrote:GEBCbookkeeper wrote:Not totally following you - so last month employee A was overpaid by $94.
