Modifying Employer  Payment Checks

The Modify Payments window allows you to modify employer payments in CheckMark Payroll program. You can change check numbers, change dates, void or delete employer payment checks.

When you open the Modify Payments window, payments already created in CheckMark Payroll are listed on the left with the month of the last payment selected.

Check Number: The Check Number field displays the number of the items selected. If more than one item has been selected, the check number displayed will coincide with the first item in the list selected. If a group has been selected, all checks will be renumbered consecutively. When prompted, select whether you wish to save the “old” check number(s) as void in your list.

Check Date: The Check Date field displays the dates entered on the Check Dates window when you entered the Calculate Pay window. You can change the month and day, but the year must coincide with the payroll year displayed on the Company Information window.

Important: You cannot modify the Check Date of a paycheck. If the Check Date was entered incorrectly, you will need to delete the checks with the incorrect Check Date and re-enter the paycheck with the correct check date.
