    HI Paula3,

     

    Thank you for your post.

     

    In addition to LRBooks61's advice, another option would be to process an (unscheduled) adjustment pay run to transfer the amounts + hours into the correct category, example below:

    As you can see from the above example, you would be placing the negative amount & hours next to the incorrect category and a positive figure (same amount) next to the correct category. This should leave you with a $0 net (void pay) as the amounts should be the same. Once you record this pay it will also be corrected in STP too.

     

    Either option will resolve your issue, but do let us know if you have any further queries, happy to help.
