How to fix W2 Box 12 which should be code S, not D for QBO Online Payroll

I did not setup the employee payroll retirement plans correctly, although I know the taxes were calculated correctly since I manually changed the taxes for every paycheck. On the W2 Box 12, the code should be "S" for Simple IRA, but now some employees have both "S" and "D" (because I did not setup correctly). Is there a way to change "D" to "S"? Or, does it matter? I have QBO Online Payroll. Thank you very much.
