I need to generate a one time check for a paycheck error. How do I do this?

Thanks for posting to the Community, @thinkfirstactsec.

 

To generate a one time check, you can change the pay method column from direct deposit to paper check and modify the salary/hours acquired by the employee.

 

Let me show you how:

  1. Go to Workers and then select Employees.
  2. Click Run payroll.
  3. On the employee column, check the box for the employees you wanted to pay one time check.
  4. Change the pay method by clicking the Direct deposit to change it to Paper check and the salary/hours acquired by the employee.

  5. Click Preview payroll.
  6. Hit Submit payroll.
  7. Select Finish payroll.

Then you can manually write employee's net pay on a check or order check stock from Intuit preprinted with your bank and company information.

 

For more details in issuing a one time check, you can refer to these articles:
