How to Modify Paychecks in CheckMark Payroll

modifying paychecks

Modifying Payroll Checks

Once paychecks have been created, you can use the Modify Paychecks window to modify check numbers, modify and void check numbers, change period start and end dates, void or delete employee paychecks.

When you open the Modify Paychecks window, checks already created in CheckMark Payroll are listed on the left with the coordinating check date selected. By default, the last check date created is the date selected when entering the window. To see details of an individual check, select the check on the left and details will be displayed on the right side under Check Details.

Modifying Paychecks

Once selected, a check’s calculations appear in Check Details. Items displayed in this part of the screen cannot be modified. If more than one check is selected, nothing will be displayed in Check Details.
