Double Voided Payroll Checks

I printed some checks wrong and ended up Voiding them twice.

All the voids are appearing on all of my payroll reports, but not all are on any of my accounting reports.
This is my mess:

Selected Payroll Data; Check 9373 written to JS voided 2 times
Check Regis: Check 9373 9373-Void one time

SPD: Ck 9374 got printed to RE for $277 Voided 2 times
same Ck 9374 got printed to JS for $240 Voided 1 time
Ck Regis: Ck 9374 appears for RE one time with 1 Void, not 2
Ck 9374 appears for JS one time with no Voids, not 1

If I go back into payroll & Void the Voids I believe it will make my payroll figures correct;but I don't know what it will do to my accounting reports.
ANY help for me? Thanks~Kristi

My approach would be to do what you need to do to get the Payroll module correct, and then see where the Fund Account stands after that.

You may be surprised that straightening out payroll may also straighten out Fund accounting, but work on Payroll first.

If Fund Accounting is a big mess, just post it here and we will help straighten it out.

You're right, Kristi. Three voids are the same as one void. It may make your reports look a bit "funny" but should work fine.

Another approach - If you make daily backups of all data, you could print a journal report for the period since then. Then, restore to the date just before the original fateful day, and go ahead from there. Not sure how far back you'd have to go though.

A third approach would be to save the report as a Word, Excel, or other file, and edit it before presenting it.

I would think that anyone reading your reports would accept your efforts to correct things, if you humbly seek forgiveness. If not, .....
