How do I run Checkout for prior years?
Usually, Checkout only searches for errors in the current year. There are a few reasons for limiting Checkout to the current year. First, it's faster to search the current year instead of all of the current years and all of the prior years. Second, prior years are closed as part of the Payroll Year-end Checklist and it's usually not necessary to check closed years. However, Payroll can search for errors in prior Payroll years. Payroll will need additional time to process prior years.
