Selected the wrong period for my payroll
I selected the wrong pay period and ran the timesheets, how can I correct that?
In this situation, you can delete all of the improper timesheets, re-select the proper pay period, and re-run the timesheet creation.
The quickest way to delete all of the timesheets is by using the Delete All Timesheets function, located in Payroll/Process Payroll, under the Post heading.
Note: this will only work if you have not already posted your payroll.
If you have posted your payroll you can use one of the two solutions below:
- Do a restore from the backup you did just before you posted. We always strongly recommend you do a backup at posting time.
- If you did not do the backup as recommended then you will have to go in and manually and delete every payroll history under Setup > Employees. Click on Edit and go to the History Tab.
