How can I correct payroll mistakes after running payroll?

Asked 4 months ago
Correcting payroll mistakes after running payroll is a common concern for many users of Intuit Small Business Payroll. The process to rectify these errors typically involves a few key steps. First, it is essential to identify the specific mistake, whether it is an incorrect amount, a misclassified employee, or an omitted payroll deduction. Once the mistake has been identified, the user should navigate to the payroll section within their Intuit account and look for an option to either edit or reverse the payroll run. If a mistake has been made in the paycheck amounts, adjustments can often be made by creating an adjustment paycheck for the affected employees, ensuring that the correct amounts are reflected on their records. Additionally, it is important to communicate any corrections to the employees affected by the mistake to maintain transparency. For more complex issues or significant errors, consulting the help resources available on the Intuit website may provide further guidance. Users can check the current web page for specific procedures and contact information if needed.
