How can I cancel a "bonus" direct deposit before it is processed?

I mistakenly entered a 2nd bonus for an employee and would like to cancel it before it is processed.  

Thanks

How can I cancel a "bonus" direct deposit before it is processed?

I'll show you how to cancel a direct deposit in QuickBooks, BoxSave.

 

We can cancel the incorrect bonus by deleting the unprocessed direct deposit.
 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu.
  2. Within your Employees tab, click Paycheck list.
  3. Select direct deposit. Then, click the drop-down arrow and select Delete or Void.
  4. Click Yes to confirm.

 

Note: Make sure to do it before it is processed. Otherwise, we need to contact our Payroll Support Team for further assistance.

 

Once done, we can recreate a new one for your employee bonus. For your guide, we can visit this article: Learn how to pay an employee bonus using QuickBooks Payroll.

 

Also, this article is a great resource to learn what specific report you can pull up to get your employee and payroll information: List of payroll reports in QBO Payroll.
