Accidentatlly overpaid salaried employees

Hello - I hope you can help. 

I recently hired two new employees. When I ran their first payroll, I accidentally ran it for the whole month instead of for the actual number of days they worked their first month. How can I correct? 

Thanks,

Christine

The easiest way to deal with this is to reduce their next paycheck by the amount you should have reduced their first paycheck.
