Edit Delete |
Modify or delete a pay statement. If a pay statement is changed, it must be recalculated before it can be submitted for payment. If the pay statement has already been posted or submitted for payment, or if the payment has already been issued, you must reverse the pay statement instead of deleting it. For more information, see Work with existing payroll payments. When you delete a pay statement:
For more information about changing or deleting pay statements, see Work with pay statements. |
Reverse |
Reverse a pay statement. This creates a reversing pay statement that has amounts that are the opposite of the amounts in the original pay statement. Neither the original pay statement nor the reversing pay statement can be modified or deleted. Arrearage amounts are not reversed when you reverse a pay statement. If arrearages were created or recovered on the pay statement that you reverse, you must manually adjust the worker’s arrearage balance on the Worker arrears form. If an arrearage was created, the amount of the arrearage is in the Arrears FactBox. To determine whether an arrearage was recovered, use the Worker arrears form. Importante A pay statement can only be reversed after it has been submitted for payment or posted to the general ledger. Therefore, there are important steps that you must take both before and after you reverse the pay statement. For more information about reversing pay statements and worker payments, see Work with existing payroll payments. |
Submit for payment |
Submit the pay statement to create a payment journal so that the payment can be generated for the worker. To post the pay statement at the same time that you submit it for payment, select the Post the selected pay statement check box. To submit more than one pay statement at the same time, see Issue worker payments. Nota This button is not available when the pay statement must be recalculated, when the payment has been submitted for payment, or when the payment has been issued to the worker. It is not available at any stage of processing for pay statements that were created using a Manual payment run type with the Disable accounting check box selected. |
Submit to reissue |
Submit the pay statement to create a payment journal so that a payment can be reissued. This is used when the payment to the worker was properly issued but the funds were not received by the worker, most commonly as a result of a lost or damaged check. For additional steps that need to be done before you reissue a payment, see Work with existing payroll payments. Nota This button is available only after the payment has been issued to the worker. It is not available at any stage of processing for pay statements that were created using a Manual payment run type with the Disable accounting check box selected. It is not available for pay statements that have been reversed. |

Precaución
If arrearages were created when the pay statement was generated, the arrearage amounts are displayed in the Arrears FactBox. The arrearages may cause the pay statement benefit lines to differ from the lines and amounts that you expect.
A benefit line that appears to be missing may have been removed during benefit calculation because there was not enough pay to cover the amount.
Likewise, a benefit line or amount that appears on the pay statement that was not expected may have been added to recover arrears from previous pay statements. There is no indication on the pay statement itself that an arrearage amount has been recovered. Use the Worker arrears form to determine whether arrears were recovered on the pay statement.
