So I made a mistake.  I submitted payroll yesterday.  Then found out we needed to reimburse an employee for some expenses.  It was before the cut off time.  I went into the edit/void menu and clicked on employee.  I should have voided and then re-entered it for him but I just edited with the new amount.  I re-submitted the payroll and got the confirmation that one check had been modified.  When i checked the bank account to see what cleared our company account it was for the lower amount (ie not the amount with the addition).  But when I look At QB for the employee it shows the modified amount even though thats not what hit our bank.  What do i do?  I'm fine if I need to cut a manual check for that amount I just dont know what accounts to hit.  Right now its showing more hit our bank account in QB than really did.

Hi there, @twinkler06.

It seems like a duplicate post. My colleague has already provided an answer for you. You can refer to this link for your reference: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/employees-and-payroll/re-direct-deposit-correction/01/1111113#M96812

i dont believe the solution was correct.  What I did end up doing as I saw that the Intuit generated debit to the direct deposit liability was LESS than the individual paycheck liability credits.  The difference was the edit I made.  So we processed a check for the employee witht he offset being a debit to the direct deposit liability account so that account is trued up.  so cash account in QB should be trued up now too.
