payroll fraud

We had an employee submit fraud timecards for payroll and they were processed in a previous quarter.

I need to back out the paychecks and submit corrected quarterly returns, etc. Any thought on this? Thank you.

Thanks for reaching out to the Community about this, martha123.
 

Since your cancellation deadline has passed and the employee's received their funds, you can void your invalid payments and collect the funds back from them.
 

Here's how to enter voided paychecks:

  1. In your top menu bar, go to Employees, then Edit/Void Paychecks.
  2. Change the Show paychecks through/from dates to an appropriate timeframe.
  3. Press Tab on your keyboard.
  4. Click the check, then choose Void.
  5. When a pop-up box displays, enter "YES" and hit Void.
  6. Tick your checkbox to agree with our terms and conditions for voiding paychecks.
  7. Return to the main screen of QuickBooks, then access your Employees menu and pick Send Payroll Data.
  8. Click Send. There won't be any direct deposits, but this lets Intuit know to cancel the paychecks.
  9. Enter your PIN and select OK.


If you're voiding in a prior quarter/year, amendments will be required. In the event you have a QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Assisted subscription, I'd recommend getting in touch with our Customer Care team for assistance. They'll be able to pull up your account in a secure environment and help with the process.
 

If voiding and collecting your funds back isn't possible, you may qualify to request a direct deposit reversal.
 

For correcting quarterly returns, I'd recommend reviewing the details in our Correct or Amend Forms resource.
 

I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have a wonderful day!
