Question

Splitting one Payroll Amount Into Two Deposits

Hello! I ran payroll at the end of the month but my direct deposit service only allows for a maximum amount to be deposited in a day. Since this employee's paycheck is over this daily limit, I had to split the paycheck into two transfers. Knowing it was the end of the month, I scheduled both of them for the following month so it wouldn't mess up my reconciliation. I print out my bank statement today to do my reconciliation, and the first part of the payroll I set up for the following month left the account on the last day of the month, so now my reconciliation is messed up. Please let me know how I can edit this transaction without messing up the payroll or withholding so I can reconcile and move on. Thank you!

Hi there, svaziri3.

 

I'll guide you in editing your payroll transactions so you can reconcile your bank account. Since your payroll has already been processed to QuickBooks, you'll have to void and recreate the paycheck to change its date. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu.
  2. Select Edit/Void Paychecks.
  3. Change the Show paychecks through/from dates to the date of the paychecks you need to void, then press Tab on your keyboard.
  4. Select the check-in question, then choose Void.
  5. In the pop-up box, enter YES and then select again Void.
  6. Tick the checkbox to agree to the terms and conditions of voiding the paycheck.

After that, follow the steps in this article to recreate the paychecks and correct your payroll liability balances: Recreate a missing or voided direct deposit paycheck in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

 

Once you're done, you can now start reconciling your accounts. I've also attached an article that will help you resolve common reconciliation errors and mistakes: Fix issues when you're reconciling in QuickBooks Desktop
