Printed payroll on wrong company checks

Hi all, 

 

I’m fairly new to bookkeeping and payroll and hopefully this is an easy fix: 

 

we have multiple companies and I noticed today that my Mother in law printed payroll on the wrong checks. She entered it into the correct quick books , but grabbed the checks for the wrong company and the employees have already cashed their checks so one of our companies owe the other money but we don’t want it to hit the bank account twice . What do I do? 

thanks!

Printed payroll on wrong company checks

Hello there, EKM2023.

 

You can enter an actual bank deposit to reimburse the expense used in paying your employees. This way, you'll not have to pay them twice. Just access the company file where you'll need to reimburse. Then, you can follow these steps on how to create a deposit. 

  1. Go to the Banking menu.
  2. Select Make Deposits.
  3. When prompted to the Payments to Deposit window, click Cancel.
  4. Enter the deposit details in the Make Deposits window.

You can use this articles for more details in entering a deposit: Record and make Bank Deposits in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

For further assistance in using the correct accounts, I'd suggest reaching out to an accountant. 

 

Let me know if there's anything else that you need help with. You take care and have a great day!
