Hi Malinda3,

 

I know a way how you can submit another paycheck with your employee's advance payroll.

 

You can void the paycheck and recreate it. Let me guide you with these steps:

 

  1. From the Employees menu, select Select Edit/Void Paychecks.
  2. On the Edit/Void Paychecks window, change both the Show paychecks through/from date to the date of the check.
  3. Highlight the check and click Void.
  4. Enter Yes and click Void again.
  5. Click Done.
  6. Click Employees on the top menu and select Send Payroll Data.
  7. Click Send

 

Afterward, create the paycheck again with your employee's payroll advance.

 

Then, you can run a payroll summary report to know your employee's total payroll wages, taxes, deductions, and contributions.

 

Drop me a comment below if you have any additional questions about bank feeds. I'll be happy to help you further.

@Malinda3 

Since the check hasn't been issued yet, you can edit it and add the missing detail.

 

Find it from the employee center or in your bank account register, then edit it and add the payroll advance to it - as you would have as you created it.  Then save the change and you'll be ready to issue the paycheck.

@Adrian_A  RE:  You can void the paycheck and recreate it. Let me guide you with these steps:

 

Why tell the OP to do all that when they can just edit the check and fix it? There's no reason to void the existing check when you can just modify the check already created (this isn't QuickBooks Online...)
