How to delete a payroll entry not yet sent (scheduled)

I have a payroll payment I want to delete.  It is DD and should be a check.

When I go to Paycheck list for the employee, the Status is "Scheduled".  When I select that paycheck, I do not have a "delete" option, only "print".

 

How do I delete the paycheck?

NVM, solved.  The instructions are incorrect.

I need to click on the status link, then there is a dropdown allowing me to make an adjustment, delete or void.

 

Help page should be updated./

How to delete a payroll entry not yet sent (scheduled)

I see you want to delete a paycheck in QuickBooks Online, @dLearned. I'm here to share some insights about the process.

 

If the payment cancellation deadline has gone, your employees will typically get the money in their bank accounts on payday. I advise canceling the payment and asking your employee to reimburse you.

 

If not, you may submit a request for a direct deposit reversal.
