Adjusted sick time not printing correct on paychecks

Starting on January 1, my state is requiring paid leave for employees.  My pay period was 12/31/23 to 1/13/24 so there was 1 day that leave was to not be accrued.  I entered my payroll like usual then manually adjusted the sick hours available for each employee.  When I printed the paychecks and paystubs, it has the original sick time that was calculated during the payroll process.  The adjustment I made was completely ignored.  I did a verify, rebuild and tried to fix with Quickbooks file doctor.  I know everything is correct in my setup.  Any suggestions on why it's not printing the adjusted time?

Adjusted sick time not printing correct on paychecks

Thought I'd mention that I ran an Employee Paid Time Off List and the available hours listed for each employee is the amount I adjusted.  It matches the sick hours available in each employee record.  Not sure why the paychecks and paystubs are not correct.

Adjusted sick time not printing correct on paychecks

Hi!  Thank you for your reply.  I did speak with someone regarding this issue and she was not able to help me. She verified that I have everything setup correctly.  I decided to just let my employees start accruing sick time on 12/31.  Somewhere there is a disconnect from the hours available in each employees record and what prints on their paychecks.  I can't give my employees a paycheck that has incorrect sick time listed.

Adjusted sick time not printing correct on paychecks

Hi!  I already changed everything back.  I'm not going to mess with it anymore.  The person I spoke with at Quickbooks told me that I cannot change the sick accrued amount.  When I look at the employees paycheck detail, it's not available for me to modify.  She also said that by law I cannot change it, which I know is wrong.  None of this is controlled by the state.  I should be able to change the sick hours available for each employee and have it print correct on the paychecks.  I think it's a problem within Quickbooks itself that I cannot fix.  Hopefully someone will be able to correct this for other customers in the future.
