I accidentally wrote a paycheck amount for .30 cents less than the correct amount and now I cannot get my accounts to reconcile in Quickbooks. How can I fix this?

Welcome to the Community, timberli.

To fix the issue, you can either enter a journal entry or delete/void the paycheck and then create a new one with the correct amount. Let me show the steps to remove the paycheck.

1. Tap the Workers menu on the left panel to choose Employees.
2. Hit the Paycheck List link under Run Payroll.
3. Click on the Funnel icon to select the correct date range.
4. From the list, mark the box of the paycheck you're trying to remove and hit the Void button.
   
5. Mark the box for I understand that this action cannot be undone and further action is required and then press Void Paycheck.
   

Now that we've cleared the incorrect paycheck, let's enter a new one with the correct information. Here's a guide that will walk you through the process: Create paychecks in online payroll.

If you opt to enter a journal to correct the difference, make sure to consult with an accountant. They can recommend which accounts to use to track the discrepancy to ensure your records are in tiptop shape.

I can help run a search to find one of our accountants. Click on the link and then enter your city or zip code in the field box and hit Search: ProAdvisor.

When you have all the details, let's create the entry in QBO. Here's how:

1. Go to the New menu to choose Journal entry under Other.
2. Type in the correct Journal Date and number in the field boxes.
3. Fill in the field boxes with correct accounts and amounts.
4. Hit Save to keep the transaction.

Once done, you can start performing the reconciliation process. Check out the
