Reversing a payroll entry

TriciaWaters

I have processed an employee with the wrong tax amount taken out via AccountRight, Payroll function.  This has been sent to the ATO.  Note that I do not have auto EFT payments set up so the correct amount has been EFT into the employee account.

 

I have looked at all the links but I can not find step by step on how to reverse this.
