To edit amounts (Earnings or Withholdings) on a live printed or ATF payroll check, you must delete the check and re-enter it to make the correction. To do this:
- Go to the check creation screen under Employees > Payroll > Live or Employees > Payroll > ATF.
- Select the employee.
- Select the check from the Previous Checks window.
- Press Delete.
- This process removes the check completely from DAS. Re-create the check with correct amounts.
- For a Live payroll check, after re-creating the paycheck and saving, you can print it from Employees > Check Print.
- For an ATF check, it is considered to be saved and printed after it is re-entered correctly.
