Prepare a final payroll check for a terminated employee

For live payroll processing only
You can use the
Enter Handwritten Payroll Check
 window to create a handwritten payroll check and automatically generate the associated liabilities. This process is particularly useful for entering a final payroll check for a terminated employee.
  1. From the
    Enter Batch Payroll Checks
     screen, select
    Edit
    , then
    Enter Handwritten Check
    .
  2. Select the employee from the
    Employee
     dropdown. If the employee has already been marked as inactive in the
    Employees
     screen, you'll need to mark the
    Include inactive employees
     checkbox for their name to display in the dropdown.
  3. The employee's payroll primary payroll schedule displays in the Details section by default and the remaining fields in the Details section populate based on this schedule. You can, however, modify these check details as needed.
  4. Enter the check number.
  5. In the Settings section, you can mark the checkboxes to override some of the application's default behavior, just for this payroll check. The checkboxes are the same as those in the Settings section of the
    Enter Batch Payroll Check Options
     window.
  6. Select
    Next
     to view and, if necessary, modify the payroll check details.
  7. Enter the hours and amounts for the employee and then select
    Finish
     to create the payroll check.
