If you need to reverse or partially reverse individual pay lines from a processed pay to fix a mistake, use an adjustment pay to correct this.
Identify the Pay Number, Pay Period Ending Date and Date Paid of the original pay as per the article: Find a processed pay to fully or partially reverse this pay.
Choose Payroll, Transactions, Adjustments, Create or Modify.
Enter the Employee Code.
In the Function field select Find (F2) and then select E = Add new pay – start with Empty pay.
In the Pay Description field, type that this is a reversal of the original pay - or reference specific lines of the original pay.
Make sure the Payment Required checkbox is ticked if you are reversing an amount that was originally a payment.
📌 Note: To reverse leave accruals, select the Accrue Leave check box. This setting does not apply to leave tables set to Calculate by Date.
Choose Accept (F9) to view the second screen of the adjustment pay.
Enter the required lines exactly as they were originally entered, but the amount should be entered as a negative value of what was originally entered.
Once done, click Accept (F9) to accept the pay.
Process the reversal pay as normal as per the Payroll Process Pays Workflow.
⚠️Important:
In Check Pays, you enter the Pay Period Ending and Date Paid dates. The reversal adjustment pay transaction dates should exactly match the Pay Period Ending and Date Paid dates of the original incorrect pay transaction.
Select the Adjustment box only in the Check task area.
