How do I void a payroll check from a previous quarter?
Scenario 1
A payroll check was issued in a prior quarter and you do NOT want to reissue the payroll check. If you have already filed your 941 and other quarterly reports, use the Void Payroll Checks routine without the Create a Replacement Check checkbox selected. You should be aware that the voiding transaction will be recorded in the current quarter and the reversing transaction will be recorded in the next quarter. In this scenario, your federal payment will be less the next quarter because of the reversing transaction.
Scenario 2
A payroll check was issued in a prior quarter and you DO want to reissue the payroll check. If you have already filed your 941 and other quarterly reports, use the Void Payroll Checks routine with the Create a Replacement Check checkbox selected. You should be aware that the voiding transaction will be recorded in the current quarter and the reversing transaction will be recorded in the next quarter.
