Adjust error between PTO & OT

I mistakenly paid someone 2 hours PTO when it should have been 2 hours OT, so I need to correct the hours and the rate. 

 

On the current payroll, can I enter a negative 2 hours in PTO and a positive 2 hours in overtime? It seems to me that this would fix the hours AND the increase in net pay of the 1/2 time the employee was shorted previously. Even though it sounds like this is a simple solution and should work, I want to make sure so I don't mess something up.

 

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can enter a negative two hours in PTO and a positive two hours in Overtime (OT) on the current payroll. Please note that once the payroll has been processed, the PTO accruals used will be replenished.
