The Create another check option will appear once you've processed payroll for an employee within a pay period where payroll has already been created, @taksavill. Let me assist you in removing the additional entry you've made in QuickBooks Online Payroll (QBO).

 

If you have created an additional check for that payroll, you can easily delete it. However, if you have processed a direct deposit, you can void it, but please note that this will not stop the payment from being processed. Follow the steps below for guidance:

 

  1. In Payroll, go to Employees
  2. Click Paycheck list
  3. Decide what paycheck you'll want to delete or void and hit the dropdown arrow, then click Delete or Void
  4. After that, select Yes to confirm.

 

 

Additionally, you can include a payroll history in your QBO to keep a record of the payments made to your employees. This is important because it impacts how taxes and NI contributions are calculated. 

 

After deleting or voiding, the additional entries will be completely removed. If you have further questions about managing your payroll or any other QuickBooks-related topics, please let me know. I'll be happy to assist you again.
