How do I issue a paper check when a direct deposit is rejected by the bank?

Print a check to replace a direct deposit. If a bank fails to process a direct deposit for an employee, you can print a payroll check to give to the employee. There are four steps to print a replacement check. 

 

Step 1. Void and reset the check

1. Open Connect Payroll > Reports > Payroll Checks.

2. Go to the Reprint tab.

3. Select the check number to be reprinted.

4. Click Void Check Number and Reset for Reprint. The transaction is removed from the grid.

5. Click Close. 

 

Step 2. Run Enter Payroll Checks to set the Net pay amount

1. Open Connect Payroll > Employees > Enter Payroll Checks.

2. Enter the employee number and press Enter.

3. In the Pay Code field: Enter 85-00. Enter the Net amount to be paid to the employee.

P4. Next, enter 86-00 in the Pay Code field and set the amount to zero.

5. Press Enter to save the changes.

6. Click Close. 

 

Step 3. Run Payroll Checks to print the check

1. Open Connect Payroll > Reports > Payroll Checks.

2. Setup the report options and click GO to print the check. 

 

Step 4. Print a new Payroll Register and Check Register 

This last step will help you verify the direct deposit was replaced with the payroll check. Print a payroll register and check register to see if the transaction for a direct deposit is removed and a transaction for a payroll check is created.  

To print a new Payroll Register, see the help topic titled Payroll Register - Detail. You'll want to set up the Selection Criteria to select the reprinted payroll check.

To print a new Check Register, see the help topic titled Check Register.
