Thanks for using QuickBooks as your payroll tool, @lauraslowder. I'll be happy to help share some insight on how to re-issue a direct deposit paycheck.

 

You’re right, we can void the paycheck to make the necessary changes. QuickBooks will then adjusts your payroll records. I’ll show you how:

 

  1. On the left pane, go to the Payroll tab. 
  2. Choose Employees.
  3. Select the Paycheck list
  4. Change the date range if necessary. Then, click the paycheck you want to void.
  5. Hit Yes, then click Continue.
  6. Tap Void Paycheck.

You’ll want to learn the differences between deleting and voiding a paycheck or direct deposit payments. To learn more about how they will affect your books, see this article: Delete or void employee paychecks

 

Once done, you can create a new direct deposit. If you’ve set up a payroll schedule, you can create a scheduled payroll or an unscheduled one.

 

However, if you don't have the option to void the paycheck, I recommend reaching out to our Payroll Support. They have the tools to void the check and guide you through the steps for the whole process. 

 

I've also attached some articles below for additional reference:
