Hello neevconsultingin, 

 

Let me walk you through deleting duplicate paychecks. I presume you edited the second paychecks you ran and wanted to delete the first you recorded. To do so, you can follow these steps: 

 

  1. Click the Payroll menu and select Employees.
  2. Under the Run payroll button, click the Paycheck list link.
  3. Enter the date range as to the paycheck's paycheck date. 
  4. Select the paychecks to delete and ensure that they are the ones you first recorded.
  5. Click Delete and confirm the action.

For more details, you can click here.

 

If you're using the direct deposit payment method, you can check out this link on things you'll need to consider before deleting paychecks: Can I cancel Direct Deposit payments after they're sent?.

 

Keep me posted if there's anything you need help with. You can post your questions here anytime. Take care and have a great day!
