Steps to correct employee earnings with the incorrect settings on the Special Tab. Also see the Correcting Cycle doc.

1. Backup files in case of an error in the process.
2. Run the Totals by Detail Code (H-10) under Reports, Historical tab for employee(s) in question. Make sure you have the date range defined properly.
3. If options on the Special tab in Employee Master have been changed to be correct, the user will need to set them back to the way they were (the incorrect way).
4. Setup a detail code for the difference that will incur with processing the correcting payroll cycles.
5. Start a payroll cycle with the proper dates. To reverse the original check, the user will need to back out any earnings and/or deductions. Enter the difference to the new detail code that was set up in step 4. The check amount should be zero.
6. Run this process for all employees affected.
7. Run cycle as normal – Update.
8. Change the options on the Special Tab in Employee Master to the correct settings.
9. Start a payroll cycle with the same dates used in the previous cycle. Enter the earnings and/or deductions to calculate the correct taxes. Enter the difference to the new detail code that was previously set up in step 4.
10. Run this process for all employees affected.
11. Run cycle as normal – Update.
12. Run the Totals by Detail Code (H-10) report now to verify that all corrections made were done correctly.
13. The difference left in the new account associated with the new detail code that was set up will be the amount that the employee owes the company for taxes not withheld initially.  Those will need to be deducted from their next check for reimbursement to the company.
14. There will be taxes due to the IRS. The EFTPS page will be available with the last correcting cycle.
