If a wrong date was entered for payroll, there is a program to fix the records in Profits Plus. Go to:
-
Payroll (Module 1)
-
System Management Functions (Task 32)
- Reset Incorrect Check Dates (Sub-task 6)
-
System Management Functions (Task 32)
The program resets Payroll check dates in Employee Check History (Task 18), Employee Deduct/Add History (Task 19), and the Payroll check file.
When using this routine, the check number range must be known for the checks that will have a new date set.
After changing the dates, the two payroll history files (Tasks 18 & 19) must be sorted (either manually or by the backup) before they can be used for ANY purpose.
Note: Most banks will cash a check with the wrong date on it, however if you aren’t comfortable with the date that actually printed on the check and you want to re-print the checks with the correct date, then you must VOID each check and re-run the payroll. Instructions for doing this can be found in the document titled: Void a Payroll Check.
